The Inside Story

Gurgaon, Haryana - July 28, 2016

Thanks to the efforts of a top banker and the Gurgaon Police, one of the accused in a hit-and-run case has been arrested and sent to jail. The victim, techie Munish Dutta's body was found lying in a pit filled with water on Badshahpur Road in Sector-47 on July 12, two days after he was killed. After his body was found, the police recorded it as a hit-and-run case. His brother, Rajnish Dutta, took it upon himself to solve the case and managed to track down the bike and three accused with only a piece of broken glass from the headlight of a Bajaj bike found at the accident spot as evidence.

Rajnish did extensive spadework by visiting the accident site and nearby areas to find out whether anyone was aware of the accident. He spoke to a woman in Sector-47 who told him that a taxi driver was mentioning some accident involving a bike. He traced the cab agency and the driver and managed to talk to the passenger, who confirmed that the accident had taken place at 7.45 pm. The witness told him a bike was involved in the accident and people had gathered at the spot. Finally, he reached a private hospital where the injured were brought by an autorickshaw driver and recorded all the statements in his mobile phone.

Rajnish spoke to a local petrol pump owner and construction material dealers and found people who had taken the bike riders to a local hospital. He took up the case with the joint commissioner of police, Alok Mittal, who put a cop with the cybercrime cell on the job. The main accused, Sanjay Kumar, was traced to Mahua in Jhansi district and was sent to judicial custody. The case highlights the need for greater accountability and responsibility among individuals and law enforcement agencies to ensure the safety and security of citizens.
