2 dead, 2 injured as truck hits bike amid dense fog on e-way

Four youths were killed and two were injured when a truck crashed into their bike from behind on the Noida Expressway early on Thursday. Police said the four- Bhawna Shobhit Kaushal and Sonu- were returning home from work at an eatery in Greater Noida when the accident occurred near the Advantage Building in Sector 142. It was around 145am when there was a dense layer of fog in the area. The four police said were from the same family in Uttar Pradesh's Firozabad and stayed on rent in Noida Sector 49. They worked at a restaurant in Chivand. It seems that the truck driver did not slow down near the underconstruction underpass like other vehicles despite a bottleneck and hit the bike from behind. There was reduced visibility due to fog as well. According to Additional DCP Noida, Ashutosh Dwivedi, during interrogation the accused told us that due to fog the truck first rammed into a roadside barrier and then the bike. An FIR has been registered against Singh under IPC sections 279 ( rash driving), 304A (death due to negligence), 337 (whoever causes hurt to any person by doing any act so rashly or negligently as to endanger human
