Student Dies After Hitting Divider at Attapur
Rayaazuddin, who was riding a high-end motorcycle, reportedly lost control and rammed into the central divider, suffering critical injuries
HYDERABAD: A 21-year-old BPharmacy student died after his bike hit a divider on the Dr Manmohan Singh Expressway at Attapur around 12.15 am on Tuesday. According to investigation officer T. Jayaraj, the deceased, Md Rayaazuddin, a resident of Doodhbowli, was heading towards Bandlaguda to meet his friends for a group study session when the accident occurred.
Rayaazuddin, who was riding a high-end motorcycle, reportedly lost control and rammed into the central divider, suffering critical injuries. Locals alerted the police and his friends, who rushed him to a nearby hospital, where he died while undergoing treatment.
“He may have been overspeeding and failed to notice the divider. The bike was heavy, and the boy was quite lean. The impact of the collision caused him to lose control,” the investigation officer said. This is the second fatal accident reported on the flyover since its inauguration. In January, three youths had died while returning home from late-night prayers during Jagne ki Raat.
Rayaazuddin’s body was shifted to Osmania General Hospital for a post-mortem. Police registered a case under Section 106(1) of the BNS. Further investigation is underway.
