Mumbai Road Accident: 20-Year-Old Student Loses Finger After Reversing Cab Hits Scooter In Powai, Driver Arrested

A 20-year-old college student, Suyash Kamble, lost his right little finger in a road accident in Powai, Mumbai on October 10. According to the source, Kamble was returning home after dropping his mother at work when a reversing car hit his scooter. The accident occurred around 8:55 am on Central Avenue Road near Lucky Store in Eden Old Market, Hiranandani.

Police reported that the car, with a yellow number plate, reversed from a building gate and struck the handlebar of Kamble's scooter, causing him to fall. His hand was trapped beneath the scooter, leading to the severing of his little finger. Despite unsuccessful attempts by bystanders to catch the driver, Kamble managed to note the car's registration number.

Kamble was taken to Hiranandani Hospital by a local boy but was unable to locate his severed finger. He later underwent surgery around 3 pm that day. According to the police, Hamidullah Khan, the driver, was traced using the registration number. Khan was subsequently arrested but released after being served a notice. Kamble stated that his severe post-surgery pain prevented him from reporting the incident to the police immediately. He filed his complaint on Monday.
