When the bus reached Kalamboli at around 3 am, the driver stopped near a CNG pump on the Mumbai-bound stretch. The couple and the bus cleaner got off to unload their luggage. While they were removing their belongings in the space between the bus and the footpath, a poultry tempo travelling towards Mumbai from Kalamboli Circle allegedly went out of control and rammed into them.
All three sustained serious injuries in the collision. Sangeeta Mote and Sartate were rushed to the Panvel Sub-District Hospital, where doctors declared them dead before admission. Popat Mote was taken to Sushrut Hospital for treatment.
