Inna Makan seeks justice after Sahil Dhaneshra died in a Dwarka crash caused by a minor driving a Scorpio for fun reels. Police registered an FIR and the accused got interim bail.
Inna Makan, the mother of 23-year-old Sahil Dhaneshra, who died in a road accident in Delhi’s Dwarka, has appealed for strict action against the minor allegedly driving the SUV that collided with her son’s motorcycle, calling the incident a “criminal activity” rather than an accident.
Speaking to ANI, she said, “My son was going to the office on the 3rd of February. He (Scorpio driver), along with his sister, was out on his Scorpio to make fun reels. The speed with which the Scorpio is being driven is clearly visible in the reel. He (Scorpio driver) was driving in the opposite lane and came right in front of the bus and performed a stunt. My son looked to the right to see whether there was space. Because there was an e-rickshaw on the left side of the bus. The Scorpio collided with the motorcycle and hit the roadside parked car. The Scorpio driver did not apply the brakes after the collision. Even a cab driver has been seriously injured in the accident.”

“This is a criminal activity. Some people think that they can do anything on the road because their parents are wealthy; this is a criminal mentality. This is not just an accident. My son died due to their fun reel.”
Makan demanded accountability from both the accused and his family. “There are already many speeding challans against him (Scorpio driver), yet his father did not stop him from driving. I want justice for my son. No one is safe on the road due to people like them. Strict action should be taken against them. He (Scorpio driver) does not even have a license,” she said.
She further alleged that there was no attempt to slow down even after the first impact. “The bus driver fled the scene, likely wanting to avoid controversy. However, the taxi driver was in no condition to move; the public had to pull him out. Even after hitting my son, they didn’t brake; they hit the taxi, which then hit the bus. There was no control over their speed. After the destruction, the public caught them.”
“This act demonstrates criminal activity. These children think they can do anything on the roads because their parents have money and they won’t face punishment. This is a criminal mentality, not a ‘mistake.’ You cannot call this a mere accident because they left home specifically to perform stunts for a video. Because of their reel, my child’s life is gone. There are other students there; their lives could have been lost too if more children had been on that road,” she added.
According to Delhi Police, the incident took place near Lal Bahadur Shastri College in Dwarka South. An FIR was registered under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita after a PCR call was received at around 11:57 am regarding a serious crash. Police found three damaged vehicles and a motorcycle at the scene. Sahil Dhaneshra was declared dead at the spot, while an injured taxi driver was shifted to IGI Hospital.
