Pune witnessed a tragic incident on October 5th when a 27-year-old man, Harun Yusuf Sheikh, suffered severe foot injuries after being struck by a water tanker in Undri's Wadar Vasti Chowk. Harun required emergency surgery at Sana Hospital, which included debridement, vascular and tendon repair, and vacuum-assisted closure. His family has demanded strict action against both the tanker driver and its owner.
Harun's brother, Musa Yusuf Sheikh, filed a complaint alleging that the driver, Nagesh Nandu Gadge, was driving recklessly and negligently, causing the accident. The medical report confirmed a degloving injury to Harun's right foot and ankle, with extensive damage to the foot and ankle. The family has requested the addition of Section 125(b) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and Section 184 of the Motor Vehicles Act to address grievous hurt and dangerous driving.
The incident has reignited concerns over heavy vehicles in Undri, following a fatal accident involving a truck just weeks prior.
