An eyewitness has come forward in the death case of Punjabi actor Deep Sidhu, who was killed in a road accident on Tuesday.

The accident happened near Kharkhoda toll around 9:30 pm on Tuesday. Deep Sidhu died on the spot as his vehicle rammed a stationary truck on Kundli-Manesar-Palwal (KMP).
The eyewitness, who has been identified as Mohammad Yusuf, said that he was driving right behind Deep Sidhu when the accident happened. Yusuf said that he was driving towards Panipat when he witnessed the accident.
He said that he pulled over and parked his car to the side. He then got the driver out of the truck and then called emergency helpline number 112. The ambulance was sent after 15 minutes, the eye-witness claimed.
Mohammad Yususf added that he had managed to pull Reena Rai, Deep Sidhu’s friend who was with him at the time of accident, out of the car and laid her on the pavement. She reportedly gave him Deep Sidhu’s brother’s number. On being contacted, Deep Sidhu’s brother told Yusuf that he will send someone from Delhi, who will reach in an hour.
The eyewitness further claimed that a crowd had gathered at the accident site. Then after about half an hour, Deep Sidhu and the girl were taken to a hospital in an ambulance, Yususf said.
According to Mohammad Yusuf, the accident did not happen because of overtake. He said, 'The car was moving at a speed of over 100 km/hour. It is not a matter of overtake, nor was the truck stopped. The car collided with a moving truck from behind.”
