NEW DELHI, JULY 30, 2015: A 25-year-old Manipuri youth, who had recently come to Gurgaon in search of a job, died while his friend sustained injuries after a recklessly driven BMW allegedly hit their scooty outside a petrol pump on MG Road. The accident happened in the wee hours of Friday when Ra Wunger Eijon and N Galengpam Twis Hung Themsen were returning to Gurgaon after having dinner at another friend’s place in Delhi, police said. The two youths were rushed to a private hospital by passersby, which referred Eijon to Delhi’s Safdarjung Hospital where he died on Monday. The duo was not wearing helmets at the time of the accident.
An FIR was lodged against the BMW’s driver, who is yet to be identified, under sections 279 (rash driving) and 304-A (causing death by negligence) of the IPC only on Monday after Themsen and a group of youths from the North East, all of whom put up in rented accommodation in Sikandarpur, lodged a complaint at DLF-I police station.
However, cops said they are yet to identify the car or the driver as the registration number does not match with the colour of the BMW, as claimed by Themsen in his complaint. According to Themsen, who has managed to recollect the car’s registration number as DL-2711 only, the BMW was black coloured, while police claim that the number belongs to a white colour car.
Themsen said, “Eijon and I had gone to a friend’s house in Delhi for dinner around 11 pm on Thursday. We were returning home around 2 am when a speeding BMW came and collided with our scooty. We fell on the road. The driver did not stop to help us and just fled. Locals rushed us to the hospital.”
