According to police, the deceased are driver Shankar Bind, conductor Sunil Kumar, and an acquaintance, Ramraj Prasad, who were all travelling from Rajasthan's Bhiwadi towards Delhi when the accident occurred around 2am on Friday. All three, residents of Uttar Pradesh, died on the spot due to the impact. The complaint was filed by Durga Prasad, the driver's brother, who was following the vehicle in another truck. In his complaint, he told police that as they approached the flyover on the Jaipur-Delhi stretch, an unidentified vehicle ahead of the truck his brother was driving suddenly changed lanes. The truck crashed into a stationary container truck parked on the road. The complainant further alleged that the container truck, bearing a Haryana registration number, had been parked negligently on the carriageway without any reflectors or indicators.
The driver of the stationary truck was standing near the vehicle and got injured. Police said his identity, however, is yet to be ascertained, police said.
An FIR has been registered under sections 285 (danger or obstruction in public way or line of navigation) and 106 (causing death by negligence) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita against the driver.
