A 34-year-old man died after his motorcycle was hit and run over by a Thar in south Delhi’s prime location, Vasant Kunj – just days before his birthday.

The incident took place on June 25 when Sarthak Mattoo, a Gurugram resident, was on his way to work around 6:30 am. A speeding Thar took a sudden turn and hit his bike, leaving Mattoo critically injured. A passerby informed the police and PCR personnel and called one of Mattoo’s colleagues from his unlocked phone to inform them about the incident.

Mattoo was rushed to the Indian Spinal Injuries Centre by PCR personnel, where doctors declared him dead.
