Two people were killed and two others were critically injured in two separate road accidents near Sector 87 and IMT Manesar on Tuesday evening, Gurugram police said on Wednesday. Two FIRs have been registered against unidentified drivers, who remain absconding.
In the first accident around 5.30pm near Sector 87, Dharmender, 25, of Chhatarpur, Madhya Pradesh, was killed while his friend, Dharmendra Kumar, 26, of Sitamarhi, Bihar, sustained critical injuries. Police said the two were returning on a motorcycle to their rented accommodation in Bhangrola from Sector 87.
A senior police officer said Dharmender, who was riding the motorcycle, was attempting to overtake a bus when its driver allegedly changed lanes suddenly and hit the bike. “Both fell on the road, and the rider came under the rear wheels of the bus and was mowed down, resulting in his instant death.
