A Rapido bike rider and pillion rider were killed after a truck hit them in the Sector 95 area here.
The police said the deceased were identified as Rohit Kumar Gupta (29), a resident of Lucknow, and Jaipal (24), a native of Auraiya in Uttar Pradesh. Rohit lived as a tenant in Shanti Vihar, Sector 95, and worked at a Delhi-based private company.
Rohit had booked a Rapido bike to travel to his office on Tuesday morning. He was traveling from Sector 95 to Delhi with bike rider Jaipal. When they crossed the Sati Chowk, a truck coming from behind hit their bike. They fell onto the road and suffered serious injuries.
Passersby rushed them to a private hospital in Sector 90, where Rohit and later Jaipal succumbed to their injuries.
Rohit’s father Vinod Kumar Gupta reached Gurugram from Lucknow on Tuesday and filed a complaint with the police, alleging negligence on part of the truck driver. The police handed over the bodies to the family members after autopsy.
“A case was registered against the unidentified truck driver at the Kherki Daula police station. We are examining the CCTV footage to identify the vehicle,” said probationer sub-inspector Ranjeet Singh, investigating officer.
