Pilibhit: A young couple's sexual adventure in a speeding car ended in tragedy after the man lost control of the vehicle and crashed into a truck, leaving him dead on the spot. The woman is recuperating in hospital with severe injuries on her head and a broken leg.

The man, 31, from Puranpur had gone to Pilibhit to pick up his lover, 24. They then hit the Pilibhit-Puranpur highway . Police, who said the fact that it was already dark -the accident happened on Monday night -may have played a role in the head-on collision, added that the couple's car seemed to have lost control and was unable to swerve past the oncoming mini-truck.

Officers probing the incident said that both the man and the woman were naked waist down when they were taken out of the vehicle. Cops, who reported the accident from near Kathna bridge, said a FIR has been filed at the Gajroula police station and a complaint has also been made out against the driver of the minitruck for rash driving.

An officer said, "It was residents of the Bengali Colony here who rushed out of their homes when they heard the loud sound of the crash. They tried to rescue the passengers in the car, but the man had already died by then." Station officer at Gajroula Rajesh Yadav said, "Probably the couple was having sex in the moving car and either didn't see the truck coming from the other side or couldn't drive past it."
