“I raised my child for 23 years as a single mother. On February 3, my innocent child was blown away by a car. I am a helpless mother,” she said in the video posted on X (formerly Twitter).

The mother has urged parents to stay alert about road safety and asked the public to support her.
Describing the traumatic moments of that day, Maakan told the news outlet that they received a call after 1 pm informing them about the accident.
“I ran to my car and reached there. My son was lying on the road. His jacket was torn. He was in a very bad condition. I understood that he had been screaming for 10 minutes. An ambulance was there but he was not taken to the hospital,” she said.
Minor driver granted interim bail
The teenaged SUV driver, aged 17, was presented before the Juvenile Justice Board (JJB) and sent to an observation home.
He was granted interim bail on February 10 by the JJB. According to police, the relief was given on the ground that he is a Class 10 student and was scheduled to appear for his examinations.
Vehicles seized and ongoing investigation
All three vehicles involved have been seized and inspected. CCTV footage from the area has also been collected for the ongoing investigation.
Preliminary findings suggest that the SUV hit the motorcycle coming from the opposite direction before crashing into a parked car. Police said the investigation is still ongoing.
