Driver stalking woman crashes loader into her car in Rahimabad

Wednesday, 11 September 2024 | PNS | Lucknow

A stalker made an attempt to kill a woman whom he knew for the last few years by hitting the car she was riding with his loader at a railway crossing in Rahimabad on Monday night.

The accused did not stop after hitting the victim’s car from behind. He pressed the accelerator of the loader to the full and kept pushing the car until it rammed into the barrier of the railway crossing, breaking it, and collided with two motorcycles and other vehicles.

Seven persons, including the woman and two members of her family, were injured in the incident.

DCP (West) Omveer Singh said a case was registered on the complaint of the woman and the accused was sent to jail. The incident took place around 9 pm on Monday.

The DCP said the accused, Vinay of Rahimabad, knew the woman and had developed fancy for her. He was stalking her for a long time and did not mend his ways despite being warned of police action in the past.

On Monday night, Vinay started chasing the car immediately after he spotted the woman riding the car along with her family members in Rahimabad.

When the car stopped as the Jurabganj railway crossing was closed, Vinay crashed the loader into it from behind.

As the loader kept pushing the car, the impact broke the railway barrier and the car collided with a pole on the side of the road before hitting two motorcycles and other vehicles.

The people present there chased Vinay as he tried to flee and caught him. They thrashed him and handed him over to the police.

A couple riding a motorcycle suffered serious injuries while a constable was also injured in the incident.

The DCP said the injured people had been admitted to the KGMU Trauma Centre. He said the accused knew the woman who was riding the car.

It is alleged that the accused was in love with the woman and was annoyed with her because she married someone else. On Monday, when he saw the woman in a car with her husband and brother, he lost his mind and he started following her. When the car stopped, he deliberately rammed his loader into the car with the intention of killing her.

It further surfaced that the accused had attempted to get the woman’s husband framed in a criminal case in the past by shooting himself.

On November 1, 2023, Vinay had informed the police that he had been shot at. The bullet had hit his hand. He had accused the woman's husband and his partner. A case was also registered. Investigation revealed that he had hatched a conspiracy to implicate the woman's husband and had shot himself in the hand. Even after this, no action was taken against him.

In the incident, Rahimabad resident Dinesh Singh, who was on a motorcycle with his wife Rooprani and daughters Princy (10) and Stuti (10 months) were injured when the car hit his two-wheeler. They fell on the ground and were dragged several feet before the car stopped.

Shivam, a constable posted in Rahimabad police station, was also hit by the car and was injured while Dinesh and Rooprani sustained serious injuries on their heads and entire bodies. Three people, including the couple travelling in the car, also sustained minor injuries.
