A 22-year-old university student died in a road accident on Shaikh Khalifa bin Salman Highway near Hidd City, heading toward Manama. His vehicle collided with another while it was stopped in the emergency lane due to a breakdown.

According to authorities, Ali Ibrahim Bujasam, a media student at Gulf University, was waiting for a tow truck when the incident occurred. A companion traveling with him was also injured.

Eyewitnesses said the crash happened suddenly, leaving no time to avoid impact.

A lasting impression

Those who knew Ali remembered him as a driven and hardworking young man who balanced studies and work from an early age. In a previous video, he spoke about his routine, saying he had been studying and working since the age of 15 or 16, describing life as “a constant race against time.”

He later established his own business, Royal Car Care, a fully equipped car wash built independently, reflecting his entrepreneurial drive and determination.

At Gulf University, a professor described him as a bright and disciplined student who showed strong motivation and creativity, particularly in practical assignments. She highlighted a short film he produced about himself, noting that his work was “made with passion.”
