Caught On Cam: Mumbai Man Dies After Falling Under Train

In a shocking incident, a 26-year-old man died after he fell on tracks and came under a moving suburban train. The video of the tragic incident has now gone viral.

The victim is identified as Dinesh Rathod, who is attached to Maharashtra's State Transport (ST) corporation. Going by the video, he fell on tracks and came under a moving suburban train when a person punched him during an argument at Sion station.

According to the GRP official, the alleged attacker is Avinash Mane (31) and his wife Sheetal Mane (30). Both have been arrested in connection with the incident which took place on Sunday.

The couple alighted from a suburban train at Sion station where Sheetal Mane got into an argument with Rathod over some issue, the cops said. The woman's husband, Avinash Mane, came to find out what was happening when he saw Rathod abusing his wife, said the official.

In the midst of the situation, a heated argument erupted between Avinash Mane and Rathod. In the heat of the situation, Mane delivered a punch to Rathod, causing him to lose his footing and tumble onto the railway tracks. Tragically, he was then fatally struck by an oncoming commuter train.

The ST staffer was taken to a nearby hospital, where he was declared dead, said the official, adding after the incident the couple fled the spot.

After scanning CCTV footage of the station premises and based on information provided by eyewitnesses, the police arrested Avinash Mane from the Dharavi area and later nabbed his wife too.

The couple was booked under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), including 304 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder).
