In another horrifying case, a delivery agent on a scooter was hit and dragged by a car for 500 meters in Noida on the eve of New Year.
According to media reports, Kaushal, the Swiggy delivery agent was out for delivery when his scooter was hit by a car, driven by a drunk man, near the flyover of Noida Sector-14.
Eyewitnesses say that on the discovery of the body, the driver fled the accident spot near a temple, which was 500 metres from the accident spot.
The incident came to light when Kaushal's brother, Amit, called him at 1 am and a passerby answered the call informing him about what happened.
A police complaint was registered by Amit and an investigation is underway. Police are checking CCTV footage to identify the accused.
The incident happened on the same night when a 20-year-old woman in Delhi was hit by a car and dragged for about 13 km by a car that had five men with two drunk.
Anjali Singh's naked body was later found on the road with multiple injuries sending shock waves across the country on New Year.
