He perished in a car accident that left him in ashes because the car caught fire after the car accident.
Here is that police had to say about his death;
*May 3, 2025*
We regret to report a tragic single fatal crash that occurred in the early hours of Saturday, May 3, 2025, at approximately 01:54 AM at the Busabala Flyover traffic lights, located in Makindye-Ssabagabo, Wakiso District.
The crash involved a Nissan GTR motor vehicle registration number UAT 638L, which was traveling from Kajjansi towards Munyonyo. Preliminary investigations indicate that the driver lost control of the vehicle after colliding with temporary pavements installed at the roundabout section of the flyover. The vehicle subsequently overturned and caught fire, leading to the instant death of the driver, identified as Mr. Rajiv Ruparelia.
The exact cause of the crash has not yet been determined; however, investigations are underway, and we will provide updates to the public as more information becomes available.
We extend our deepest condolences to the family and friends of the deceased.
