A 28-year-old biker was killed following a road rage incident involving an autorickshaw driver in Malad’s Dindoshi. The incident occurred on Saturday evening near Pushpa Park when the auto driver, identified as Avinash Kadam, abruptly cut in front of the motorcyclist, Akash Maeen, who then confronted Kadam. The situation escalated into violence as other auto drivers joined Kadam in beating Maeen, resulting in serious injuries. Maeen later died during treatment at the hospital. His family, who did everything they could to save him, is left with horrifying memories of that day.

Narrating the incident to mid-day, Akash’s father, Dattatreya, said, “He had come home for Dussehra, excited about fulfilling his biggest dream of buying a car. He had booked an Ertiga from a showroom in Malad. We all gathered at the showroom to take delivery, but for some reason, the car wasn’t delivered. Akash was riding home on an Activa with his wife, while I was in an auto with my wife. When we got home, my daughter-in-law called, saying there was a fight involving Akash and the auto driver.”
