An FIR was registered against the unknown driver under Sections 106, 281, and 324(2) of the BNS at the DLF Phase 2 police station. Police retrieved the vehicle’s registration number from CCTV footage and identified the owner, who had recently sold the car. A manhunt is underway to arrest the driver.

Jain’s family suspects foul play, and locals question if it was a targeted attack due to personal enmity. The police are investigating all angles.
