A freak mechanical failure led to a horrific double fatality on the outskirts of the capital today. Two youths were killed instantly near Bhuvasuni Chack after their motorcycle suffered a sudden tire puncture, causing the rider to lose control and collide with an oncoming truck.
The impact under the Info Valley police jurisdiction was so severe that both victims died on the spot before medical aid could arrive. Police officials rushed to the scene to recover the bodies for post-mortem and have since seized the truck involved in the crash.
While the identities of the deceased are yet to be established, authorities are working to trace their families through vehicle registration details.
An investigation is currently underway to determine if overspeeding played a role in the tragic sequence of events. This incident serves as a grim reminder of how sudden vehicle malfunctions can turn fatal on high-speed corridors.
