Location & Timeline

The Vasai Fort Bandar Jetty is a high-traffic zone used by commuters traveling between Vasai and Bhayandar via the Ro-Ro ferry service. On Saturday, March 28, around 9:00 AM, a car driver approaching the jetty stepped out of his vehicle to purchase a ferry ticket.

At that time, a seven-month-old puppy was peacefully sleeping just a short distance in front of the car. According to witnesses and footage, after returning to his vehicle with the ticket, the driver made no attempt to shoo the animal away or wait for it to move. Instead, he drove the vehicle directly over the puppy in a reckless and inhumane manner. The young animal suffered severe injuries and died on the spot due to heavy bleeding.

Immediate Death

Upon learning of the incident, Arbaz Sheikh, the manager of the Vasai-Bhayandar Ro-Ro service, rushed to the spot. After reviewing the CCTV footage, which clearly showed the driver’s deliberate negligence, Sheikh filed a formal complaint at the Vasai Police Station.
