Three Women Injured in Faridabad Car-Ambulance Collision, Villagers Protest
A car collided with an ambulance in Faridabad, injuring three women and sparking a protest from local villagers demanding justice.
Faridabad, November 11 (Daily Kiran) : In a serious incident in Mirzapur village, Faridabad, a speeding car struck an ambulance belonging to the Radha Swami Satsang on Wednesday. The collision resulted in injuries to three women, prompting outrage among local residents who later blocked the road for several hours.
According to police officials, the driver of the car fled the scene immediately after the accident. Investigations are underway, and authorities are optimistic about apprehending the suspects soon. However, the victims’ families have accused the police of colluding with the alleged offenders.
Kalawati Devi suffered severe injuries to both legs in the crash. The tension escalated when villagers, frustrated by the lack of arrests, staged a protest that lasted nearly five hours, leading to heated exchanges with the police. After extensive negotiations, the villagers eventually cleared the road.
Narendra, the son of injured Sumitra Devi, recounted that the women were returning home from a satsang around 10 a.m. when the ambulance dropped them off at a bend in Mirzapur village. At that moment, a fast-moving car coming from Neemka collided with the ambulance from behind. The impact was so forceful that Kalawati Devi became trapped under the vehicle. All three women were taken to the hospital for treatment.
Narendra claimed that the car had three to four occupants, reportedly residents of Neemka village, and that empty bottles of alcohol were discovered inside the vehicle. He accused the police of bias, insisting they should take action against the offenders, who are known to be in the area. “The police are not with us. My mother and grandmother are in serious condition at the hospital,” he stated.
Satyaveer, the in-charge of the IMT police station, confirmed that a case has been registered. He stated that efforts are underway to locate the fleeing occupants of the car and that arrests will be made based on the facts gathered from the scene. “We received a call on 112 reporting the accident and found multiple injuries upon arrival. An FIR has been filed, and actions will follow based on the evidence,” he added.
Tensions remain high as the community seeks accountability for the incident.
