In the process, her moped skidded and she fell towards her right side, only to come under the rear wheels of the same truck that caught up from behind." Saee's mother is a teacher in junior college in Erandwane, while her father is from pharmaceutical background and has completed his PhD. Saee's maternal uncle, Amey Ghate, told TOI, "Saee was an avid theatre artist. While pursuing her BA degree from SP College, she actively took part in the well-known inter-collegiate drama competitions, Purushottam Karandak and Firodiya Karandak. She also acted in a few commercial dramas and was a very lively person in our family. " Ghate added that apart from studies and performing arts, Saee was an avid animal lover. "She used to feed stray dogs and cats in her area and take care of them," he said. Citing eyewitness accounts, Kakade further said the truck had also moved to the left after the victim's moped came in front of it. Following the accident, the truck driver sensed trouble and fled the spot, abandoning the heavy vehicle. "Based on a complaint by the victim's mother, Deepshri Bhagwat, we have registered a case of causing death due to negligence under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) as well as relevant sections of the Motor Vehicles Act against the truck driver. We are searching for him," the officer said. The police have impounded the truck and will get it inspected by a technical expert from the regional transport office (RTO). Based on its registration number, a police team is tracing its owner and the driver. Sassoon General Hospital, in an advance postmortem report, certified head injury as the cause of the victim's death, Kakade said.
