Gujarat family, who froze to death while crossing into US, faced blizzard
A US court has begun trial for two individuals charged with human smuggling after a Gujarati family froze to death near US-Canada border in January 2022. The trial revealed that Jagdish Patel, his wife, and their two kids died of hypothermia just 12 metres from the border. Meteorologists testified that temperatures were below -20°C, with dangerous wind chills and blizzards.
