A security guard who was severely injured after being hit by a van in Delhi on Wednesday morning was robbed while he bled to death. CCTV footage from the Subhash Nagar area showed that a rickshaw driver went near Matibul and stole his mobile phone as he lay there, reported PTI.

The incident took place when Matibul, a father of four, was walking towards his home in Tihar village after work. The police told NDTV that the van driver got off his vehicle to take a look at Matibul. "But instead of taking him to a hospital, he drove away,” an official said. By the time the police arrived, he had died. His body was then taken for an autopsy.

The police are now looking for the van driver and the man who stole the victim's phone. An officer told Hindustan Times that a case of "rash and negligent driving causing death" has been registered. "We have formed a team to identify the driver and the rickshaw puller," the officer said.
