Assamese actor Nandini Kashyap, whose recent movie 'Rudra' was a box office success, has been arrested in a hit-and-run case in Guwahati after an injured 21-year-old student died in the hospital.
The hit-and-run had occurred in Guwahati's Dakhingaon locality around 3 am on July 25. The victim had been identified as Samiul Haque, a student at Nalbari Polytechnic who worked part-time for the Guwahati Municipal Corporation (GMC).
Haque, who had been working on a light project, was returning home when a speeding Scorpio allegedly driven by Kashyap ran him over, showed CCTV footage. The actor didn't stop to help the injured student and fled, eyewitnesses said.
