The police have taken cognisance of the incident and are investigating it.
A shocking video clip of a hit and run case in Delhi is going viral on social media. It shows a group of bikers riding on a Delhi road when they get into an argument with a man driving a Scorpio car. One of the bikers from the group recorded the entire incident where the car driver can be seen swerving his vehicle intentionally and hitting one of the bikers from the side. The biker loses control and falls off, hitting the divider on the road while the car speeds away.
The incident is from Sunday morning right below the Arjangarh metro station in the national capital. The biker who was hit has been identified as Shreyansh who is 20 years old. He was returning to Delhi after a biking trip with his friends.
Shreyansh told news agency ANI that he was returning to Delhi from Gurugram with a group of his friends when the driver of the car started hurling abuses and threats at them.
"I was returning with eight to ten of my friends from Gurugram to Delhi when he came near us and started rash driving. He threatened and verbally abused my friend. My friends slowed down a little but I drove ahead. The man sped up, hit my bike and sped away," he said.
Delhi Police had taken cognisance of the matter and asked the bikers to file a written complaint. Once the complaint was filed at the Fatehpur Beri police station, the police registered a case of attempt to murder against the driver. Delhi Police said it has identified the four-wheeler and an investigation into the matter is underway. The driver will soon be arrested, they said.
A social media user Anurag R Iyer posted the video on Twitter tagging the Prime Minister's office, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, and Delhi's Deputy Commissioner of Police claiming that the car drive "almost killed" a few of the bike riders.
"Please help us, the Scorpio Car driver almost killed a few of our riders and threatened to kill us by crushing us under the car.
This is not what we vote for or pay taxes for
no one was severely injured
Gears respect riders," he said.
