A 27-year-old man was beaten to death by a group of men in a road rage incident in Mumbai’s Malad area. The man, identified as Akash Maine, was with his parents when he was killed following a dispute over overtaking in Dindoshi on Saturday, October 12.
The incident occurred when a heated argument escalated into a violent altercation after one vehicle overtook another.
Akash was reportedly out purchasing a new car on Dussehra when an auto-rickshaw overtook his vehicle near the Malad railway station, resulting in a heated argument with the driver. The situation escalated quickly, and the auto-rickshaw driver, along with his associates, assaulted Akash, inflicting severe injuries.
A video of the incident has gone viral on social media, showing Akash being attacked while his mother attempted to protect him. In the footage, she is seen lying on top of him, trying to shield him from the assailants, while his father pleads for them to stop.
The police have registered a murder case against the accused auto-rickshaw driver and three others under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS). 9 people have been arrested in connection with the case.
Further investigation into the matter is underway.
