Disturbing footage of the incident has surfaced online, showing the tragic scene unfolding in front of Akash’s family. In a desperate attempt to shield her son, Akash’s mother can be seen lying over his body as the mob attacks him. His father was also severely injured, suffering damage to his left eye during the chaos.
The altercation reportedly began over a dispute regarding overtaking between a motorcycle rider and an autorickshaw driver but rapidly spiralled out of control as more drivers joined in the violent mob. Akash was rushed to a nearby hospital but sadly succumbed to his injuries shortly after.
The incident has sparked outrage, with calls for justice and accountability directed at law enforcement and government officials. Videos of the brutal attack have raised concerns about public safety and the escalation of violence in the city. The local police have yet to comment on the status of the investigation as the community grapples with the aftermath of this tragic event.
