Mumbai: A 23-year-old man from Vikhroli tragically lost his life in a road accident on Wednesday morning at the Sion Circle Bridge. The victim, who was riding triple seat on an Activa travelling in the wrong direction, fell from the bridge and landed outside a housing society, where he died on the spot. The incident also critically injured four other individuals.

The deceased victim has been identified as Animesh More, a resident of Tagore Nagar. More was riding triple seat on an Activa (MH 03 EK 6057) with his two friends, Amol Kunchikarve, 20, and the driver Vignesh Sarvade – residents of the same locality.

About The Incident

According to police officials, the trio were returning home after attending Ganpati Visarjan processions. At around 3:45 am, with the roads being empty, they decided to take a joyride on the wrong side of the Sion Circle Bridge, travelling southbound in the northbound lane.

At the same time, another motorcycle, a Benelli TNT 300 (MH 04 JZ 4842), driven by Ashfaq Ansari, 28, and ridden by pillion passenger Mehendi Syed, 30, both residents of Govandi, was heading towards Mumbai. Taking advantage of the empty road to speed, both vehicles were travelling at high speeds and collided with each other.

According to traffic police officials who first arrived at the scene, the collision’s impact was so severe that all the occupants of the vehicles were thrown off the bridge, except for Animesh More. “The intensity of the crash was such that More, who was reportedly seated on the third seat, was thrown over the edge of the bridge and fell outside Shivranjani Society, located below the Sion Circle Bridge,” said a police official.

Initially, when police arrived at the scene, they believed the accident had injured four people. However, they later discovered More’s body several feet away from the bridge.

All the injured were taken to Sion Hospital, but More was declared dead before arrival due to severe injuries to his back, skull, legs, and chest. The others are currently in the ICU receiving treatment. Police reported that their conditions are critical, as none of them were wearing helmets, leading to significant head injuries.

On Wednesday night, police stated that they were still in the process of registering an FIR. Officials confirmed that none of the injured were driving under the influence, but noted that they were driving without helmets, speeding, and on the wrong side of the road. In this case, police are likely to charge Vignesh Sarvade with culpable homicide not amounting to murder under Section 105 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.

Published

Mumbai: The Mumbai-Delhi High Court has strongly criticized Red Chillies Entertainment Shah Rukh Khan, Gauri Khan and others in the defamation case against NCB Zonal Director IRS officer Sameer Wankhede and said that artistic freedom does not mean mocking a person. After this, the High Court has ordered that the controversial footage related to Sameer Wankhede be removed from the controversial Netflix series The Bads of Bollywood. Sameer Wankhede had filed a petition in the High Court and pleaded that his character has been killed in The Bads of Bollywood and this series has been made to target him. The purpose is to humiliate and mock Sameer Wankhede. After watching some parts of this series, the High Court has ordered the removal of the controversial parts from the film.

Sameer Wankhede’s lawyer had told the court that the character portrayed in the film is a comparison to Sameer Wankhede and that this series has been created with the intention of tarnishing Wankhede’s image. The Bads of Bollywood is malicious, therefore, the above-mentioned controversial scenes and objectionable dialogues should be deleted from the series, on which the court has issued an order to delete the controversial and objectionable content and content. Earlier, while hearing Sameer Wankhede’s petition, the court had sent notices to Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies, Netflix, Meta, and social media platforms and directed them to file a response. To this, Red Chillies had called the film and series a drama and made it clear that it had nothing to do with the facts. However, despite this, the Delhi High Court inquired whether a film drama does not mean that someone’s character is killed and said this, it reprimanded Shah Rukh Khan and the film company. Sameer Wankhede tried to prove through his argument that the character portrayed in the film resembles Sameer Wankhede and that this character has been portrayed in a negative way to target him and in this, an attempt has been made to make fun of Sameer Wankhede through this character, which has humiliated Wankhede, which the court has accepted and issued a directive to delete the objectionable and controversial content. This is a big success for Sameer Wankhede, while Shah Rukh Khan has suffered a huge setback.
