Vikas Malu, the director of Kuber Group, was involved in an incident on the Delhi-Mumbai-Baroda Expressway. A Rolls-Royce, in which Malu was a passenger, collided with an oil tanker near Umri village in Nuh, resulting in two fatalities and injuries to three people, including Malu. Initial reports suggested the oil tanker was on the wrong side, but a recent FIR contradicts this, indicating that the luxury car struck the front tire of the tanker, causing it to overturn.

 Profile of Vikas Malu and Kuber Group

Vikas Malu is a prominent figure as the director and owner of Kuber Group, a conglomerate that originally specialized in tobacco products. The business empire under his leadership spans an impressive 45 ventures across 50 countries. He oversees the operations of 12 companies within the group. Kuber Group was founded by his father, Mul Chand Malu, in 1985. Malu maintains an active presence on social media and has been seen in interactions with celebrities such as Salman Khan and Ranveer Singh.

Conflicting Accounts and Legal Representation

According to the FIR, the luxury car driven by Malu came from behind and collided with the oil tanker, causing it to lose balance. However, Malu's lawyer, RK Thakur, has contended that Malu was not in a condition to drive and that his driver, Tasbir, was behind the wheel. Thakur suggested that driving slowly on an expressway could be riskier. Despite this, it remains uncertain whether Malu or his driver was responsible for the collision, as all occupants are currently receiving medical treatment and are unable to provide statements.

Controversies and Allegations

Vikas Malu has been embroiled in various controversies. He recently made headlines when Saanvi Malu, his second wife, accused him of the murder of actor Satish Kaushik. Kaushik had reportedly loaned Malu ₹15 crore, leading to a dispute between the two. Saanvi alleged that Malu could have poisoned Kaushik, who died of a heart attack at Malu's farmhouse. However, police investigations concluded that there was no foul play involved in Kaushik's death.

Ongoing Investigation and Conclusion

As investigations continue into the incident on the expressway, uncertainties remain about who was driving the luxury car at the time of the collision. With conflicting narratives and legal representation, determining responsibility for the accident poses a challenge. Meanwhile, the controversies surrounding Vikas Malu, including the allegations of the actor's murder, add further complexity to the situation. The incident raises questions about road safety, accountability, and the need for thorough investigations in such cases.
