Pedestrian dies in Road Accident, RML Anaesthetist arrested
New Delhi: An anaesthetist attached to the Ram Manohar Lohia (RML) Hospital has been arrested for running over a 28-year-old pedestrian while speed-driving his car, allegedly in an inebriated state. The man reportedly died while undergoing treatment.
The incident happened at Lodhi Colony on August 19. According to the complaint filed by the mother of the deceased, she and her son, Satish, were returning home from the area and walking towards a bus stand when the accident took place.
The complainant alleged that a speeding car, being driven by the accused, Dr Singh in a ‘zigzag’ movement, came and hit her son, following which he was flung nearly 10 feet in the air before falling down. She raised an alarm and called passersby for help. On seeing the crowd, Dr Singh immediately sat with them in an auto-rickshaw. They reached AIIMS Trauma Centre, where the man was admitted in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
