Shaifali Barwal, Superintendent of Police of the Aravalli-Modasa district, says “The incident occurred at 8 pm when three men were travelling wrong side on a two-wheeler coming from Rojhad Chokdi towards Dhansura Highway.”

“Prima facie it was the negligence of the two-wheeler as they had three riders. They took the wrong way because they wanted to get a shortcut and avoid the usual U-Turn on the road after which they came under the Dumper Truck going on the highway,” she added.
