Sources have reported that Abhijeet Sawant and Prajakta Shukre were driving back home from night out at Juhu restaurant on Tuesday night which turned out to be a nightmare when they decided to race their cars down the empty road. However, fun turned dangerous when Prajakta rammed her Honda City into two teenagers, Tohil Khan (19) and his brother Taufiq Khan (14), on a motorcycle and seriously injuring them.

According to the police, Shukre and a few of her friends, including Sawant, were racing with each other when Shukre lost control of her vehicle and hit the motorcycle.

Police official also reported that locals who had witnessed the entire incident immediately gathered at the spot and assaulted Sawant who came back in his Audi and began to shield Shukre after the accident from angry mob.

Police immediately arrived on the spot and took the singer duo to the Santacruz police station.

After the incident, Prajakta was taken into custody for rash and negligent driving but was later released on bail after submitting Rs 3000. Reportedly, singer Sonu Nigam came to the police station after hearing the news about the incident.

Police doubts that Abhijeet and his group are in drunken condition, hence investigation is on.
