He tried to stop the truck driver, but the latter allegedly accelerated and fled instead of pulling over. Mahendra then tailed the truck and managed to note down its registration number.The chase continued towards Sohna, where the truck allegedly struck the Alto again. The impact was strong enough to put the car at risk of overturning, but Mahendra escaped without the vehicle turning over.He later approached policemen posted at a checkpoint in Sohna and informed them about the incident.

Mahendra subsequently submitted a written complaint at Bhondsi Police Station.The officer said, “We are examining CCTV footage from the toll plaza and nearby roads to trace the truck’s movement and identify its driver.”
