Babu’s relatives and family held the protest at the accident spot leading to a traffic jam on the Balanagar main road. The police stepped in using “light force” to disperse the crowd.

However, deputy commissioner of police, Medchal traffic, Gunasekhar stated that according to the CCTV footage the constable did not attempt to stop Babu physically. “However, Babu slowed down then sped up suddenly losing control before falling down,” TOI quoted Gunasekhar as saying.

A case has been filed against the police constable for negligence.

Babu, who is from Roda Mistry Nagar of Shapurnagar, leaves behind his wife and two children. According to reports, he was going to Balanagar after a call from his younger brother when the accident took place.
