On September 1, 2026, a devastating car accident in Malad West claimed the life of 35-year-old former lawyer Priyanka Satra, leaving her husband Mayank injured and forever changed. The tragic incident occurred at a traffic signal, where the couple was waiting, and a 65-year-old man named Krishna Chamankar was behind the wheel of an MG Windsor.
According to police, Chamankar claimed he thought his automatic car was in neutral gear when he inadvertently pressed the accelerator instead of the brake. The forceful movement caused the accident, which then led to a subsequent crash with three autorickshaws, resulting in the death of Priyanka and injuries to Mayank and several others.
As Mayank was transported home in a wheelchair to say his final goodbyes to his wife, the accused remained inside his vehicle until passers-by forced him out. Preliminary investigations did not find Chamankar under the influence of alcohol, but his blood sample is yet to be tested. Police are investigating the sequence of events, and CCTV footage from the area is under review to determine what exactly happened on that fateful night.
