According to the police, 31-year-old Sagar was driving at a high speed when he hit a road divider which caused the car to topple over and land in a 10-metre deep ditch. He died on the way to the hospital. His wife, son, business partner and an associate from the car company were also in the vehicle and sustained injuries and were taken to a private hospital for treatment. According to the police, the airbag and use of seatbelts saved the lives of passengers who were sitting in the front.
