Ahmedabad SUV accident

In a significant breakthrough, Ahmedabad police have arrested driver of the SUV that knocked down two cyclists in a hit-and-run incident on the Sola High Court Bridge. The arrest comes after a meticulous investigation spanning four days, during which more than 100 CCTV cameras were reviewed.

The accused, Pranav Vora, reportedly attended a liquor party with friends in Vastrapur before driving under the influence. Following the accident, he fled to Udaipur, attempting to evade the authorities. The police launched an extensive probe to track him down.

Police relied on partial passing numbers to identify the vehicle, a black SUV 700. By tracing the vehicle’s ownership and analysing the owner’s location and mobile details, the team successfully zeroed in on the accused.

The accused, who is a manufacturer and seller of surgical instruments, now faces charges for the accident, as well as cases under the Prohibition Act and for drunk driving at both Vastrapur and Sola police stations.

Police officials confirmed that further inquiries will be conducted into the liquor party involving the accused and his friends to uncover additional details surrounding the case.

This incident once again highlights the perils of drunk driving and underscores the need for stricter enforcement of road safety laws.
