The accident took place on Sunday where a woman was killed after her scooty was allegedly hit by a car in Delhi. The woman was dragged for almost 12 kilometres after she came under the car.

The Delhi Police has arrested all five accused by Monday morning. “As per our investigation, it was a fatal accident. All five persons who were present in the car have been arrested. They will be produced before the court today. The postmortem of the deceased woman will be conducted through a board of doctors,” said the DCP.
