He allegedly drove dangerously towards the personnel, creating panic among police and commuters and putting lives at risk. Attapur Sub-Inspector Srinivas Reddy and his team acted swiftly, apprehended the driver and seized the vehicle. Police also cautioned parents against allowing young drivers to indulge in speeding, dangerous manoeuvres or road stunts for thrills.
The accused was arrested on October 16 and produced before the court, which remanded him to judicial custody.
The accused, Mohammed Fahad Uddin, a resident of Salar Jung Colony in Tolichowki, was driving a Suzuki Fronx, with the word “GHOST” written just above its number plate, when he encountered police conducting checks. The man suddenly reversed his car and sped in the wrong direction against oncoming traffic after noticing the inspection, according to police. “Driving in the wrong direction to evade police checking and endangering on-duty personnel will invite stringent legal action,” police warned. Police said strict action would be taken against motorists who endanger public safety or attempt to flee checks.
