Uttar Pradesh: Body Dragged For 10 Km On Yamuna Expressway, Driver Arrested In Mathura

The body was reportedly dragged for more than 10 kilometers in the most recent suspected hit-and-drag incident, according to the police.

New Delhi: In a horrifying reenactment of a young woman's death in Delhi on New Year's Day when she was run over, a body was dragged under a car in Mathura, Uttar Pradesh, for more than 10 kilometers in the early hours of Tuesday. The body was reportedly dragged for more than 10 kilometers in the most recent suspected hit-and-drag incident, according to the police.

The car's driver, Delhi resident Virender Singh, has been arrested. He asserted that the man was killed in a separate accident and trapped beneath his vehicle. The body hasn't been found.

At a toll booth near Mathura on the Yamuna Expressway, Singh was traveling from Agra to Noida around 4 a.m. when security personnel noticed the body stuck under his car.

At the spot where the person stopped the vehicle, images showed a badly damaged body underneath it.

The man who was arrested reportedly told the police that on Monday night, when the fog was thick, he could barely see and that he had no idea a body was under his car.

"There was dense fog at the Expressway last night, so there was low visibility, due to which the man who met with some accident stuck to the car," Superintendent of Police Trigun Bisen stated, quoting the suspect.

In order to determine who died and how the police are questioning Singh and looking into security cameras along the way.

Since the incident on January 1 in which a 20-year-old woman named Anjali Singh was found dead on the street after being allegedly hit and dragged for several kilometers by a car driven by five youths in the Kanjhawala area of Outer Delhi, similar incidents have been consistently making headlines. The woman's clothes were rumored to have been dragged, and she was found dead and abandoned in the middle of the street. In the wake of the incident, seven people, including the five people in the car, were arrested.
