She was passenger in Audi which smashed into a wall
AN inquest looking into the death of a woman who died in a car crash has been opened.
Marukh Aslam was the front seat passenger of a black Audi A1 when it collided with a wall in Holcombe Brook, Bury, on December 2.
The tragic incident happened on Bolton Road West at around 1.40am.
Sadly, despite the best efforts of emergency services, 35-year-old Marukh, of Worsley Street, Radcliffe, was pronounced dead at the scene.
An inquest into her death was opened at Rochdale Coroner’s Court on Friday.
It heard how the driver lost control while trying to negotiate a bend and the vehicle left the carriageway.
Following her death, Marukh’s family described her as an “extraordinary role model” who was “conquered the hearts of many”.
In an emotional tribute, they said: “A daughter, sister, aunty, mother and a friend to many who was taken too soon.
“She was an extraordinary role model and a remarkable woman with good deeds who conquered the hearts of many.
“Heaven has truly gained an angel, you can now spread your wings, fly high and watch over all your loved ones... Gone but never forgotten, until we meet again beautiful.”
The hearing has been adjourned for six weeks so the inquest can continue in line with any criminal proceedings. Following the incident, a 44-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving, driving whilst unfit through drink or drugs and police assault. She has since been released on bail.
