A 30-year-old Chembur resident, Ajay Bhalerao, lost his left leg after he skidded due to a pothole and was run over by a speeding truck last month. After being discharged from the hospital recently, Bhalerao, a storekeeper, registered a complaint against the truck driver.
He told mid-day, “On July 27, I was on my way to my shop in Prabhadevi as usual. But near Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC), my two-wheeler got stuck in a pothole around 9 am. I fell down and a truck ran over my leg. I received no help from the police. Passers-by took the phone out of my pocket and contacted my brother Vijay. He rushed me to Sion hospital.”
