Mistry (54) and Jahangir Pandole, who were in the backseat of the luxury car, were killed when their vehicle hit a road divider in Maharashtra's Palghar district on Sunday afternoon.

 

Eminent gynaecologist Dr Pandole (55), who was at the wheel, and her husband Darius (60), who was also sitting in the front, were injured. They were subsequently taken to a hospital in Vapi.

On Monday, the two were shifted by road to Mumbai, the official said.

The bodies of Mistry and Jahangir Pandole have already been sent to the state-run J J Hospital in Mumbai for post-mortem.

An official from Kasa police station in Palghar said they have registered a case of fatal accident under the provisions of the Motor Vehicles Act.
