YouTuber Sania Aktara's Death Shakes Up Fan Community

Reports suggest the 14-year-old was the sole breadwinner of the family and is survived by two sisters. She had lost her father two years ago.

The road accident in Darrang led to the instant death of five persons, including Aktara. The remaining three injured were shifted to hospital for critical care treatment.

Unfortunately, Aktara's is one in a long line of recent influencer deaths that left online communities in mourning. In the early hours of November 1, models Ansi Kabeer and Anjana Shajan lost their lives in a car crash in Kerala. The two were beauty pageant winners and had been travelling for a photoshoot, as per reports.

Following her death, Kabeer's final post on Instagram - which was captioned "It's time to go" - received attention from fans pointing out the coincidence.

In Liverpool, England, something similar transpired when influencer Paige Rice passed away in a road accident last month. She was driving with her boyfriend, who also succumbed to his injuries days later.
