The answer is No, it is not safe to transfer the blood because the antibodies in the recipients plasma are interacting with some unidentified antien on the RBCs.

The blood is not safe for tranfusion because antibodies in the recipient's plasma are interacting with some unidentified antigen on the donors RBCs. So, it is not safe to transfer the blood to the recipient.
