“Soon after the car hit the divider, it caught fire and was completely gutted. Jagadeesh was charred to death,” Khammam Rural CI G Rajashekar said.

Police initially faced difficulty identifying the victim because of the burns. His identity was later confirmed using the vehicle's registration number. Fire personnel reached the spot and controlled the blaze within around 10 minutes. The body was subsequently shifted to Suryapet Government General Hospital for postmortem.

Police are investigating the circumstances surrounding the accident. Initial findings suggest lack of sleep or drowsy driving may have contributed to the accident, though authorities have not established the exact cause.
