“It was 3:20 am. I was standing outside the shop when I heard a loud noise from a vehicle about 100 meters away. Earlier I thought it was a tire burst. As soon as the car moved, I saw a body being dragged. I informed the police immediately," said Dahiya.

He further said that after dragging the body for quite some time, around 3:30 am, the car took a U-turn with the body of the woman still stuck under it and that the accused drove repeatedly on the road of about 4-5 kilometres by taking U-turns.

Taking to social media, people tagged the incident as “Delhi horror” and expressed their outrage against the perpetrators as well as the Delhi police. They further questioned if it was an accident or a murder. Poeple are demanding justice for the victim while questioning women’s safety in the city after recurring numerous crimes against women in the capital city.

A Twitter user wrote, “The gory details of the #Delhiaccident are horrifying. All 5 monsters, Deepak Khanna, Amit Khanna, Manoj Mittal and Krishna deserve to be hanged after a fast track trial. This doesn’t look like an accident, seems like a murder. A crime as heinous as the Nirbhaya r@pe.”
