I informed the police immediately," Dahiya had told ANI.After some time, he said, around 3:30 am, the car took a u-turn and the lifeless body of the woman was still stuck under the vehicle. Dahiya said the accused drove repeatedly on the road of about 4-5 kilometres by taking u-turns."I tried to stop them many times but they did not stop the vehicle. For about one-and-a-half hours, they drove around with the girl's body for about 20 kms,' he had said.Dahiya added that he also chased the car with his bike and informed the police.After about one-and-a-half hours, the body fell from the car near Jyoti village on Kanjhawala Road, after which the accused fled, he had added."It could not be just an accident," Dahiya stressed.The police had earlier said the girl's clothes and even the back had been scraped off.The body was sent to the SGM hospital, Mangolpuri, where she was declared brought dead. The body was kept at the hospital's mortuary.Earlier, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said the strictest sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) should be slapped against the perpetrators in the case.Kejriwal added that he spoke to Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena and asked him to take exemplary action against the culprits.Taking to Twitter Kejriwal said, "Spoke to Hon'ble L-G on the Kanjhawala incident. Requested him to take exemplary action against culprits, strictest sections of IPC shud be slapped against them. No leniency shud be shown even if they have high political connections. He assured me that he will take strong action."Meanwhile, the car was traced and the five occupants were apprehended from their houses, police said.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
