Kochi, August 24: A Kerala bishop died on Friday after falling out from a moving train here, police said.
The 80-year-old Thomas Mar Athanasios, head of the Chengannur Diocese of the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church, was standing near a door in the train when the incident took place at around 5.45 am, in Pulepedi.
The door then suddenly slammed closed, leading to the Bishop to fall out.
Even though he headed the Chengannur diocese of the Kottayam-based church, he had a few educational institutes in Gujarat.
