Sohail Khan's car was involved in an accident at Bandstand, Bandra, where the accident took life of one pavement dweller, Chandra Bala. The 70-year old Bala was later declared dead at Bhabha hospital. The actor was not in the car when the event happened and it was his driver Dhananjaya Pimpale who was driving the vehicle. The driver was allegedly not stopping the vehicle after the event.
The police have arrested Pimpale and as per primary investigation the driver was found of not in taking alcohol, but the police said that they will still wait for the urine and blood samples to confirm. The arrest is on various charges including negligent driving and culpable homicide not amounting to murder. He will be produced in a local court today.
Pimpale, 46, was driving the car towards Arbaaz Khan's home in Galaxy apartments, when he hit the elderly woman Chandra Bala. The police said they received a call at 11.30 from an eyewitness, reporting the accident. Sohail was shooting for Comedy Circus when the events happened.
As per an eyewitness, the car moved over the woman’s body but did not stop. A passerby and a police constable later shifted Bala to Bhabha Hospital but her life could not be saved. She is said to have been a homeless woman.
Some reports said that an eyewitness saw Sohail in the car – reports also said that he was driving -but the police have denied this.
In 2002, Salman Khan's Land Cruiser ran over pavement dwellers in Bandra, Mumbai, killing one and injuring three others. The actor was booked for rash driving.
