Watch: Mumbai biker's stunt video with two women goes viral, lands him in jail

Bike stunt on the streets of Mumbai has landed a person in jail after video of his wheelie with two women as pillions went viral on social media. The person, who was identified as Faiyaz Qadri, was arrested by Mumbai Police on Sunday. The video, which went viral over the weekend, shows how the biker violated traffic rules, negated safety precautions and put lives of others in danger. The incident comes to light after recent cases of such stunts on public roads went viral with some of the violators booked or jailed.

The video shows how the two women were clinging on to the biker while he performed the wheelie stunt. One of the women was sitting in front of the biker, facing the rear of the bike. None of the rider or pillions were wearing helmet.

The video, which was shot in December last year, led the police to the accused before he was arrested. On Friday, a case was registered against the accused biker and his two female companions at the BKC Police Station. They were charged under IPC section 308 which booked them for allegedly attempting to commit culpable homicide not amounting to murder.
