In a tragic incident in Leicestershire, a 32-year-old Indian student, Chiranjeevi Panguluri, lost his life in a car crash, while four others, including the driver, sustained serious injuries. The accident occurred on Tuesday morning when a grey Mazda 3 Tamura, carrying six people, veered off the road while traveling from Leicester towards Market Harborough. The vehicle ended up in a ditch, and Panguluri was declared dead at the scene.
According to Leicestershire Police, the crash happened along the A6. Panguluri, who was a passenger in the car, died instantly. The other passengers, a woman and two men, along with the driver, were rushed to the hospital. While the injuries of the two male passengers are serious, they are not life-threatening. The woman’s condition has not been clarified, but she too is receiving medical care.
The driver of the vehicle, a 27-year-old man, was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving. He was later released on bail as investigations continue. Police are urging anyone who was on the A6 that morning or anyone with dashcam footage to come forward and assist with the inquiry.
Authorities revealed that all those involved in the crash are from Andhra Pradesh, India. The incident has deeply shocked the Indian community in the UK, and support is being extended to the affected families during this difficult time.
This tragedy comes just months after another unsettling case involving an Indian national in the UK. Earlier this year, a 24-year-old woman, Harshita Brella, was found dead in the trunk of a car. Authorities are still investigating her death, and her family has raised concerns about a potential dowry dispute.
As the investigation into Panguluri’s death continues, the community in Leicestershire and beyond is grappling with the loss of a young life and hoping for the swift recovery of those injured.
