In another horrific hit-and-run case, another person has been hit and dragged by a car in Uttar Pradesh’s Hardoi, India.
Luckily, the man who is a cyclist was only injured, unlike Anjali who lost her life after being dragged on New Year’s Eve by a car. The patient has been hospitalised and the car driver was taken into custody, a police official was quoted by Indian media.
The incident took place in the Kotwali city area where due to a collision between a cycle and a car, the cyclist’s leg got stuck in the car and he was dragged by the car for some distance.
The minor victim was admitted to the hospital and the car driver was taken into custody.
This is the second such incident coming to light this week after a woman’s horrible death in Delhi came to light after she was dragged for a few kilometres by a car on new year’s night.
She and her friend were returning from a New Year’s Eve party early on January 1 on a scooter when a Maruti Suzuki Baleno hit their two-wheeler.
While one fell on the side, the victim’s body was entangled in the underside of the car as it drove on for at least two hours, dragging it for at least 14 km, and was found by residents of outer Delhi’s Kanjhawala at around 4 am.
