Hyderabad: A total of 102 persons, who were caught in five days by the Cyberabad Traffic Police on charges of drunk driving and without driving licence, have been sent to jail for durations ranging from a day to one week. According to the Traffic Police, the 102 persons sentenced to imprisonment were among 321 caught for drunk driving and without driving licence during regular vehicle checking between September 20 and 24 at various places across Cyberabad Commissionerate.

All those caught were produced before the court which imposed a total fine of Rs 10 lakh on violators of the drunk driving rule and Rs 1.1 lakh on those without driving licence. Kukatpally and Miyapur had 52 persons each who were imprisoned for drunk driving.

“Drunk driving has been a major cause of road crashes and fatalities on roads in Cyberabad. Hence, we have been taking stringent legal action against such violators,” a senior official from Cyberabad Traffic Wing. “In view of the increasing number of road accidents due to drunk driving, the Traffic Police have started acting strictly against drunk driving,” the official added.


The persons who cause fatal accidents, particularly under drunken condition, were being booked for culpable homicide not amounting to murder as per section 304 part II of the Indian Penal Code which would result in the imprisonment of up to 10 years. Also, the persons who knowingly allow or accompany the drunk drivers were also being prosecuted for abetting the crimes.
