Kolkata, Feb 7 (PTI) A traffic seargent of Kolkata Police died while on duty in a bizarre road accident in Basanti Highway in the fringes of the city on Monday, a senior police official said.

Sashibhushan Minaj, who is in his early 30s, died probably after his bike fell into a pothole while he was chasing a vehicle on Monday afternoon, he said.

The reason behind the death of the traffic sergeant, who was posted with Tiljala Traffic Guard, could also be because his two-wheeler was knocked down by another vehicle from behind, he said.

“The sergeant was declared brought dead after locals, who after spotting him lying injured on the side of Basanti Highway, took him to a nearby hospital. We are trying to find out what is the cause of his death,” the official added. PTI SCH KK KK KK
