A 55-year-old pillion rider died after slipping from a two-wheeler near Gunjur in H.S.R. Layout on Monday. Her husband, Govinda Reddy, sustained severe injuries.
The victim, Lakshmidevi, a resident of Gunjur, was not wearing helmet, the police said.
The couple was returning home after visiting their daughter's house in Anekal. Just as they were nearing their residence, Laksahmidevi lost her balance and slipped from the scooter, sustaining head injuries.
Passers-by rushed the duo to a nearby hospital where she succumbed later. The H.S.R. Layout police have taken up a case.
