India, an unidentified man aged around 30 years was hit by a train, sustaining serious injuries including the severing of one of his hands and both feet. He succumbed to his injuries two hours later.

The police is also attempting to track down two men who were seen accompanying the man, when the latter moved towards the incoming train, but walked away after the incident.

CCTV footage of the incident showed the man walking or pushed to the edge of the platform and when he was balancing on the edge he fell forwards when the train arrives. After the incident, the two men who had been walking with the man, the deceased, on the platform before the incident walked away briskly.

None of the two had rushed towards the the victim after the incident. The Police suspects the deceased could have been in an inebriated state when the incident took place as his behaviour seemed unusual.

Police are trying to establish the victim’s identity as well as track down the two others who were seen accompanying him in the CCTV footage.

The man died while undergoing treatment at a hospital.

Despite regular awareness campaigns and announcements are being done by railway authorities across stations to stop trespassing and crossing of tracks, a few people still insist upon choosing the short cut.

Instead using the escalators, lifts and foot- over -bridges provided by the railway, such people jump over tracks, sources said.
