A video recorded inside the Scorpio SUV that hit 23-year-old Sahil Dhaneshra, killing him, reveals fresh details on the horrific accident on a Delhi road. The footage shows the moment the SUV, driven by a teen, rammed the bike on February 3.
Reel Shot Inside The Car
The video, filmed by a woman sitting next to the teen driver - apparently his sister - showed him speeding on a road without a divider. The SUV narrowly misses a bus before colliding head on with Sahil's bike.
The footage also shows Sahil attempting to overtake the bus on his motorcycle just before the SUV coming from the opposite direction collides with him.
Sahil's mother, who shared the reel, said the video had been trimmed at the end, the part when the accident actually took place.

Teen Scorpio Driver On Bail Amid Board Exams
The fatal incident occurred at 11:57 am near Lal Bahadur Shastri College on February 3, under the jurisdiction of the Dwarka South police station. Upon arriving at the scene, police discovered a pile-up involving the Scorpio, a Swift Dzire taxi, and Sahil's motorcycle. Preliminary investigations suggest the Scorpio hit Sahil's motorcycle from the opposite direction before crashing into the parked taxi.
The driver of the taxi, Ajit Singh, was also injured in the crash and was treated at IGI Hospital. While his statement has been recorded, police are still waiting for the final medical opinion regarding his injuries.
The driver of the Scorpio, a juvenile who did not possess a valid driving license, was caught during the investigation. Following the incident, he was produced before the Juvenile Justice Board (JJB) and initially sent to an observation home.
However, on February 10, the Juvenile Justice Board granted the teenager interim bail. The board cited the minor's ongoing Class 10 board examinations as the primary reason for his temporary release.
