A couple experienced a terrifying ordeal on Diwali night near Gurgaon's Sector 70 as they were pursued by a Maruti Eeco. The occupants of the Eeco allegedly engaged in dangerous driving, repeatedly overtaking and braking abruptly in front of the couple's car, attempting to force them to halt.
The frightening chase continued for about a kilometre until they reached their society gate. Security guards intervened, managing to stop the erratic vehicle, while the couple drove to safety inside the premises. The Eeco's occupants reportedly remained outside for nearly 20 minutes, arguing with security and making threats.
The victim, Shubham Jain, who recently moved to Gurgaon, shared dashcam and CCTV footage, expressing his shock and distress. He noted that the Eeco lacked a visible rear number plate, and its front registration details were obscured. Jain also mentioned that society guards described such incidents as common in the area and warned against confronting the individuals involved.
This incident has prompted Jain to question the safety and law and order situation in an area known for its premium developments. Police have acknowledged the videos and initiated an investigation, though Jain has chosen not to file a formal complaint at this time.
