Off Duty with Family, What This Cop Did for 2 Mumbai Accident Victims Is Amazing!

Late last night in Mumbai, Police sub-inspector, YS Mulla, was headed to the Marine Drive promenade, with her family including her 8-year-old daughter, post her shift. According to a report in Mid-Day, Mulla heard a bike skidding, and when she rushed to the spot, she found an upturned scooter, next to two women who were lying on the ground and bleeding heavily.

Mulla moved the victims to the footpath and was looking for help when the Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Shivdeep Lande, turned up. He was passing by the area when he saw the crowd gathered around the victims, and came forward to help. DCP Lande hailed a taxi and rushed the victims to the GT hospital, and Mulla followed the cab on her scooter.

The accident victims, Neha Kanekar (21) and Nisha Waghela (18), were triple riding on the scooter, with their friend, Tushar Gole (24), who survived the accident without a single scratch. The women were taken to the casualty ward, and as it turned out, their mothers were members of the staff of the hospital.
