Man held for running over traffic police officer in Sarai Julena
A traffic constable was seriously injured after a car rammed into him in Sarai Julena, Delhi. The driver fled the scene but was later apprehended by police.
It was an ordinary Tuesday morning in Sarai Julena when a traffic police constable stepped out onto the road to stop a speeding vehicle. In a split‑second, a four‑door sedan slammed into him, sending the officer sprawling onto the asphalt.
Witnesses say the driver, a middle‑aged man, panicked and sped away without stopping. "He just drove off like nothing happened," one local shopkeeper recalled, still shaken by the scene.
Emergency services rushed to the spot, and the constable, identified as Constable Ramesh Kumar, was whisked away to Safdarjung Hospital. Doctors later confirmed he suffered a fractured leg and bruises, but he is expected to recover fully.
Delhi Police launched an immediate search. Within hours, they tracked the vehicle through CCTV footage and the number plate. The suspect was located a short distance away, detained, and now faces charges of “causing grievous hurt to a public servant” and “attempt to evade law enforcement.”
Speaking to reporters, Senior Superintendent of Police (Traffic) Anil Mehta stressed that such reckless behavior will not be tolerated. “Our officers put their lives on the line every day. Anyone who thinks they can dodge responsibility after harming a cop will be dealt with strictly,” he warned.
The incident has reignited calls for stricter traffic enforcement and better awareness among motorists. “We urge every driver to respect traffic police, especially when they are trying to manage the flow of vehicles,” added Mehta.
For now, the constable is recuperating under medical supervision, and the legal process against the driver has begun. The community hopes this episode serves as a reminder: roads are shared spaces, and safety cannot be taken for granted.
