Mikael recieves a goodluck handshake moments before the tragic accident

Idol finalist Mikael Spalko is in a critical but stable condition in Outlying Uzbekistan County Hospital (OUCH). After agreeing to be a celebrity rider in this weeks 'tour de Uzbekistan' charity cycle race for crash victims. Spalko was clipped by a car driven by a fan who claims she was "just asking for a autograph". Police have dismissed the incident as 'unfortunate' and denied any possible foul play.

Charity Race officials however have praised Spalko for "raising awareness of the dangers of car vs cycle accidents. In a fitting tribute, the site of the accident was promptly renamed 'The Chicane of Spalko'. 

Mikaels idol dreams are crushed....by a white volkswagen polo

Amazingly Mikael was the only one injured out of the 2000 cyclists competing. Medical efforts were hampered by Uzbekistans flailing emergency services, as only one ambulance was on duty and that broke down three times on route to uzbekistan Hospital.

 Tragically the impact of the collision caused extensive injuries to the 19 year old crooner, a factured skull, 8 broken ribs, a perforated bowel and perhaps most devestating of all,  a crushed larynx.

Doctors are doubtful as to whether or not Spalko's soothing voice will ever be heard again.

 A press release from Surgeons stated that some of the injuries (including the crushed voicebox) were "unfortunate side effects of the surgery and not necessarily a  result of the original collision"

Fans and wellwishers have stayed away from the hospital in respect to the young mans privacy. Although in a coma, Spalko's fanbase remains undamaged, with his popularity actually rising by 35%.

Doctors and idol officials have advised that Mikael should withdraw from the competition pending regaining conciousness.

With Spalko a withdrawal from the competion, Bronislava nd Ivava are left to slug it out in next weeks final performance to decide who will be YOUR Uzbekistan Idol.
