However, Srinivas Murthy, Mehboob and Rahul continue to recover at the ICU of Mallya Hospital. Mohammad Mehboob (23), a private security guard would not have been a victim if his security firm wasn’t short of staff.  Mehboob, who hails from Manipur and came to the City two years ago. He did not want to go to the stadium but later was told to go as there were only few men. "He was not selected for the stadium security initially. However, due to lack of security men, he was asked to go there," revealed his cousin Mohammad Murad Ali.

Srinivas Murthy, the head constable is recovering well.  Speaking to Deccan Herald, his son Vijay said his father is doing much better. "Though my father is not able to talk or move much, he is better.  He cannot remember much of the incident. He just told me that something fell on his head and there was a blast," he said.  Srinivas was apparently the first person which the crowd had to pass through for a check at Gate No 12.  The other person is Rahul (18) a private security man.
