On the first day of New Year, Delhi’s Kanjhawala hit and run sent shockwaves across the country. 20-year-old Anjali Singh died after she was dragged for several kilometres after she got stuck under a car following an accident while she was on her way home on her scooty. Soon after, several news details came to light in the case. Initially, it was believed that Anjali was alone but the police probe revealed that she was accompanied by her friend Nidhi who fled from the scene after the incident took place. Her police statement led to more controversy and now there’s another shocking twist in the case. The family of the victim reported theft at their place and they have accused Anjali’s friend Nidhi of the crime.
According to media reports, thieves broke into their home in Karan Vihar after breaking open the lock and stole several household items as well as an LCD TV the family purchased just 2 months ago. They revealed that their neighbours informed them of the incident at 7.30 am in the morning and they rushed to their home to find things missing. Another member of the family questioned the Delhi Police and asked why was the police not outside their home at the time of the incident when they have been there for the past 8 days. Accusing the victim’s friend Nidhi of the crime, Anjali’s family said that they feel Nidhi is behind the crime.
