They both should have had helmets

Blue shirt guy, Dentist L. S. (50), other source says 48. He is survived by his wife, who is a government school teacher, and two daughters, one of them an engineering student and another a Class 10 student.

He, as per local reports, was a popular dental specialist who had created a different identity in society for himself. It was his nature to meet everyone with a cheerful face and greet them with respect.

He and his friend, S. K., 38, a Mohali-based businessman, were returning home from their morning bicycle trip to Sukhna Lake around 5.45 am at the time of the accident.

Eight passengers travelling in the auto-rickshaw had also suffered injuries as the vehicle overturned . Probe officials had earlier revealed that the driver of the overburdened vehicle had failed to apply the brakes

The auto-rickshaw driver should not have allowed more than three passengers,” an investigator said.

Police had arrested the 22-year-old driver, Sonu, of MDC, Panchkula, and booked him under Sections 279 (rash driving) and 337 (act so rash or negligent as to endanger human life) of the Indian Penal Code at the Sector 17 police station. He was later released on bail.

During investigation, Section 304 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) was added to the case.
