A GIST ABOUT THE CASE

Anjali was riding her scooter with her friend Nidhi when the car, with four drunk men, hit her in the early hours of New Year’s day. Anjali’s leg was caught in the left front wheel of the car, as per the forensics report, and she was dragged away by the car. Her friend fled the scene. Anjali’s body was found with her clothes ripped off and her skin peeled away. As per the autopsy report, Anjali’s skull was fractured, her brain matter missing and ribs exposed. The car took several u-turns to dislodge the body. After getting rid of the body, the accused parked the car outside Ashutosh’s residence and fled in an autorickshaw.

The accident took place at around 2 am in Sultanpuri on Sunday when Anjali, who worked at an event management company, was returning home. The cause of Anjali’s death is listed as shock and haemorrhage, and the autopsy report said more than 40 external injuries may have collectively caused the death. She is survived by her mother and younger siblings. Her father died some years ago.

Five accused have been charged with culpable homicide not amounting to murder, causing death by negligence and criminal conspiracy. They were taken to Sanjay Gandhi hospital on Thursday night for a medical examination.
