Videos shared on social media showed the ATR-72 aircraft losing control and crashing. Eyewitness Daniel De Lima, who was near the crash site, said he heard a loud sound outside his house. I looked out of my window and saw a plane circling in the sky, but was unable to move forward, then the plane suddenly fell from the sky.

The officials did not let me board the plane...
