DEHRADUN: Six young friends lost their lives in a tragic car accident in Dehradun on the night of November 12. The group was returning from a party when their car, a Toyota Innova, collided with a truck at ONGC Chowk around 1.30 am.

The crash was so severe that it tore off the car’s roof and left the vehicle mangled. Disturbing visuals from the scene show body parts scattered across the road, with two victims reportedly decapitated.

The victims have been identified as Kunal Kukreja (23), Atul Agrawal (24), Rishabh Jain (24), Navya Goel (23), Kamakshi (20), and Guneet (19). The seventh person, Siddhesh Agrawal (25), who hosted the party, survived but remains in critical condition, police said.

The group was reportedly under the influence of alcohol at the time of the crash. Six of the victims were from Dehradun, while Kukreja hailed from Himachal Pradesh.

Police are investigating the incident to determine where the group was returning from and other details.
