A fatal accident on February 3 resulted in the death of 23-year-old Sahil Dhaneshra near Lal Bahadur Shastri College. The victim, a resident of Delhi's Dwarka, sustained critical injuries including severe brain bleeding and multiple broken bones. A post-mortem confirmed his death was due to extensive internal bleeding and vital organ damage caused by the crash.
The collision involved a Scorpio, a taxi, and a motorcycle. Police reported that the Scorpio, allegedly driven by a 17-year-old boy without a license, struck Dhaneshra's motorcycle. The minor driver has been presented before the Juvenile Justice Board and sent to an observation home, though he was later granted interim bail for his exams.
Dhaneshra was rushed to Indira Gandhi Hospital on February 3 but was pronounced dead that afternoon. His mother has since shared a tearful appeal online, demanding action against those responsible for her son's death. Investigations are ongoing, with police examining all claims as part of their probe.
