Dias tried hard to apply his brakes but failed to do so and the two bikes collided against each other and Kotkarkar was flung on the road with the impact and sustained serious injuries resulting in her death. Ponda Police stated that Hector has been booked for driving his Hero Honda in a rash and negligent manner thereby leading to the death of the teenager and an offence under Section 279, 337, 304-A IPC has been registered against the accused.
