“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,” Dahiya told ANI.
The accident reportedly took place at around 3:30 am. The car of the accused continued to take U-turns even after the dead body of the victim was stuck in the vehicle.
Strictest of the punishment must be given to monsters who dragged the body of a 20year old woman in Sultanpuri.

Harendra Kumar Singh, Deputy Commissioner of Police confirmed the events. The police have caught the accused based on the registered car number.
A woman dragged for kilometres by a car full of drunken men on New Year’s eve in capital of the country is the strongest reason to introspect what’s going wrong.
This is not just a crime. It is a failure of the system.

“The accused told police that the windows of the vehicle were closed and the music was playing on loud volume so they did not get to know…When they came to know they fled from the spot,” DCP said.
