In a devastating incident that has left a community in mourning, two young friends lost their lives in a brutal hit-and-run accident near Nagla Khatka village in Bharatpur. The tragic event occurred late Wednesday night when an unidentified vehicle struck their motorcycle with tremendous force, killing both riders instantly before fleeing the scene.
Police Discovery and Immediate Response
The grim discovery was made around 11:30 PM during a routine patrol by the in-charge of the Kheriya Mor outpost. The officer came across a horrifying scene: a severely damaged motorcycle and two bodies lying lifeless on the roadside. The police immediately sprang into action, securing the area and beginning their investigation.
According to police officials, the number plate of the motorcycle proved crucial in identifying one of the deceased victims.

His friend, Rocky, aged 23, was identified shortly afterward.
Victims' Final Journey and Investigation Details
Police investigation revealed that the two friends had traveled to Bharatpur earlier in the evening to meet with laborers. Rajkumar, who worked as a contractor in Gujarat, had returned to discuss work-related matters. The duo was returning home late at night when tragedy struck near Nagla Khatka village under the Rudawal police station area.
The impact of the collision was so severe that both men were thrown from their motorcycle onto the road, resulting in immediate death. The driver of the unknown vehicle showed no mercy, choosing to escape into the darkness without stopping to help or report the accident.
Police have registered a case of causing death due to negligence against the unidentified driver and have launched a comprehensive investigation. Multiple police teams are examining CCTV footage from cameras installed along the route in a determined effort to trace the suspect vehicle.

The investigation remains ongoing as authorities work tirelessly to identify and apprehend the driver responsible for this fatal hit-and-run incident that has left two families shattered.
