The deceased has been identified as Rohit Shrimant Shinde (26), a resident of Kakade Vasti in Kondhwa.
According to the First Information Report (FIR) registered at Yewalewadi Police Station, the accident occurred at around 10.50 pm on August 28 on Pisoli Road, near Tiny Industrial Co-Op Estate and Kondhwa Karyalaya.
Rohit was reportedly travelling towards Khadi Machine Chowk on his two-wheeler, bearing registration number MH 12 UE 7339, while returning home.
According to the complaint filed by Rohit’s brother, Prashant Shrimant Shinde, the truck, bearing registration number KA 22 D 6441, was allegedly being driven by Suraj Golave (35), a resident of Kunjirwadi, at high speed and in a rash and negligent manner.
The FIR alleges that the driver disregarded traffic rules and drove in a manner that endangered human life before colliding with Rohit’s two-wheeler.
Following the collision, Rohit reportedly fell onto the road, after which the truck’s front wheel allegedly ran over his head. He sustained fatal injuries and died in the accident.
