A 40-year-old e-rickshaw driver was killed on Wednesday morning after being hit by a speeding tempo in west Delhi\u2019s Subhash Nagar. Police said the victim, identified as Matibool, a resident of West Bengal, lay bleeding on the road for close to 90 minutes before they reached the spot. No one had come to his aid in the meantime.<\/p>\n
CCTV footage showed that a rickshaw-puller, in fact, stopped near the bleeding Matibool and made away with his mobile phone that was lying nearby.<\/p>\n
A police officer said that they had obtained the footage of the incident and were examining it.<\/p>\n
The accident took place around 5:30am but was reported only around 7am. A police team reached the spot and rushed Matibool to a nearby hospital. Doctors declared him brought dead, stating that he had died due to excessive bleeding.<\/p>\n
Police later found some documents in Matibool\u2019s pocket that helped in ascertaining his identity.<\/p>\n
He apparently drove an e-rickshaw during the day and worked as a security guard in Subhash Nagar at night.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe contacted his colleagues at the company where he worked as a guard. They told us that Matibool had completed his night shift and left for home around 5am,\u201d said an officer.<\/p>\n
Matibool was hit by a tempo from behind while on his way home, the officer said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe tempo driver got off his vehicle immediately to take a look at the injured man. But instead of taking him to a hospital, he got back into his tempo and drove away.\u201d<\/p>\n
Most people who might have seen Matibool on the road may have ignored him for a drunk, the officer added.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have formed a team to identify the killer tempo driver and arrest him. Efforts are also on to identify the rickshaw puller who took away Matibool\u2019s mobile phone,\u201d the officer said.<\/p>\n
