Caught on camera: Rogue driver drags traffic cop on car’s bonnet for 20 km in Navi Mumbai

In a shocking incident, a traffic policeman was dragged on top of  a car’s bonnet for about 20 km  in Navi Mumbai on Saturday as he tried to stop the rouge driver for jumping a traffic light.

The incident captured on video shows the rogue driver refusing to stop his vehicle while the traffic cop clings on desperately to the bonnet to save his life. The incident took place along Palm Beach Road from Vashi till Gavhan Phata near Uran.

The traffic policeman, Siddeshwar Mali, was on duty in the afternoon as part of the security arrangements for Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s visit to the city.

The car driver who was found to be under the influence of drugs has been arrested and charged with attempt to murder and under provisions of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, a PTI report cited the local police as saying.
