DCP Sudhakar Pathare, a senior officer from the 2011 batch of the Mumbai Police, held the post of Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP).
He had visited Telangana for official work and later decided to visit Srisailam Temple along with a friend. While returning to Hyderabad, their Innova car collided head-on with an RTC bus in the Domalpeta ghat section of Nagarkurnool district.
The impact caused the Innova to get stuck underneath the bus. DCP Sudhakar Pathare sustained a severe head injury, while his friend suffered internal injuries. Both were rushed to the hospital but succumbed to their injuries during transportation.
According to the police authorities statement, the accident occurred around (29 Mar 25) 12 PM. Initial reports indicate that neither DCP Pathare nor his friend was wearing a seatbelt, which may have contributed to the severity of their injuries.Also read GhatRoadSafety
