New Delhi: A day after four people died as a container vehicle overturned and fell on an auto near IGI stadium in central Delhi, police on Sunday found that the driver did not have a valid licence for driving such a heavy vehicle.
Police said the truck owner, Jitender, was arrested on account of negligence for not checking the documents of his driver before allowing him to drive the vehicle. “When asked about the papers, the driver — Pratish Chaudhary, 29 — was unable to provide any valid document,” an officer said.
Further probe revealed that he had been driving the truck for the past six months without any proper document. “He was not experienced to drive such a vehicle and was not able to control the truck,” the officer added. The truck was also found to be overloaded. A team under SHO (IP Estate) Sanjeev Kumar made arrests in the case. TNN
