Kula Lumpur, Oct 28 : A couple "tied the knot" two decades after they died in a car accident, a Malaysian daily has reported.

The 18-year-old Zhang Yun Hu and 20-year-old Li Jia Mei died in a car crash about 20km away from Gua Musang, 20 years ago.

Five years ago Zhang’s mother, Huang Ya Yi, was reported as saying that her son had appeared in her dream and told her that he was happily married to Li and they were now parents to two children in the afterworld.

“At one point, the mother fell ill and the family later found out through a medium that the couple wanted the family to organise a wedding for them,” the Star Online quoted the Sin Chew Daily as writing.

After Huang met Li’s family and discussed a wedding for her and Zhang, she recovered from her illness. (ANI)
