Pune Horror: Pharma sudent killed on way home by unlicensed driver
Pune:In a tragic incident on Friday afternoon, a 20-year-old D. Pharma student died after being hit by a car driven by an unlicensed man in Pune’s Katraj area.
The vehicle struck her around 2:30 PM, while she was returning home from her internship at a private clinic in Gokulnagar.
As per PTI, Bharti Vidyapeeth police station official said, “She died on the spot. The car involved in the accident belongs to a private fleet operator and was assigned to one Satish Honmane, though it was being driven at the time of the incident by Dattatray Gadekar, who allegedly does not have a licence,”
Preliminary probe suggests Gadekar, who is not well-versed in driving, lost control of the vehicle and ran over Yeole, he said.
“Honmane had allowed Gadekar to drive despite knowing he lacked a valid licence. Both have been arrested under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and Motor Vehicles Act,” he said.
