Bandra: 20 Bikers Including a Doctor Arrested for Racing in Mumbai
A doctor who professionally rides a fancy bike seems like a pretty cool combination. However, the recreation does not look cool after getting arrested.
Police arrested Dr. Abdul Mohiuddin Sayyed (24), and 19 other bikers were arrested for bike racing in the Bandra area of Mumbai on April 23. The Bandra police had arranged an anti-racing drive through which they were able to arrest these individuals.
The race started at a famous landmark of MSRDC. However, they were signaled to stop once they reached a place called Bandra Reclamation. They tried to escape by speeding away but were eventually stopped at a police checking point ahead.
The bikers were of a young age group between 19 to 33 years of age. The bikers had various occupations ranging from the mechanic, tailor, medicine shop owner, real estate agent, delivery boy, and Mr. Sayyed, who is a doctor from the Chembur area of Mumbai.
The bikers resided in various areas of Mumbai and had planned the race on social media. Their bikes have been seized, and their licenses would be suspended.
Racing and doing stunts is completely illegal, and the accused can be booked under the Motor Vehicle Act.
