**Kochi Acid Leak Injures Motorcyclist, Others; Lorry Driver Booked for Negligence**
**Kochi, October 15, 2025:** A motorcyclist and other bystanders suffered burns on Tuesday evening after a suspected sulfuric acid leak from a passing tanker lorry near the Thevara Ferry Signal junction in Kochi. The incident occurred around 7:00 PM as the lorry, carrying the corrosive liquid, traversed the Kundannur-Thevara ferry bridge.
According to police reports, Mr. Bineesh Subrahmanian, 36, of Kandakadavukara, Kumbalangi, filed a complaint after sustaining burns to his neck and hands. He is currently receiving treatment at the Ernakulam General Hospital. The FIR states that Mr. Subrahmanian and others passing the lorry were injured due to the driver’s reckless driving and apparent lack of adequate safety precautions.
The unidentified lorry driver has been booked under Sections 281 (rash or negligent driving) and 125 (endangering human life or personal safety through rash or negligent acts) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. Police investigations are ongoing. The incident has raised concerns about the transportation of hazardous materials and the need for stricter enforcement of safety regulations to prevent similar accidents in the future.
