The victim, Victor Guha, residing at Negri in Pune, and his employer Raghu were rushed to the emergency ward of a nearby hospital in Juhu. They, however, succumbed to injuries.

A resident of Haridebpur, Victor had joined a software company in 2007 in Pune.

The two were on their way to Juhu on a motorcycle around 9 on Sunday morning, when the driver of a speeding private vehicle coming from the opposite end lost control and collided head-on with the motorcycle.

There was a pall of gloom over Victor’s locality in Haridebpur in Regent Park area. His family is in a state of shock and trying to come to terms with the terrible news. “It’s hard to believe but I have lost my son.

Hopefully, his body will reach Kolkata on Monday.” said Arindam Guha, Victor’s father.
