In the Kanjhawala hit-and-drag case, Section 302 (murder) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) was added by the Delhi Police on Tuesday. 

Meanwhile, the IPC’s Sections 304, “culpable homicide not amounting to murder,” and 302 are used to charge “murder” in the case.

Sagar Preet Hooda, special CP, Law & Order (Zone II, Delhi), said, “After the collection of evidence, police have added IPC Section 302 in place of Section 304.” 

Moreover, the murder section was included by the police based on the physical, oral, forensic, and other scientific evidence collected. 

However, further investigation into the case is underway. 

Earlier in the day, the Rohini Court granted accused Ashutosh bail on a Rs 50,000 bond. Rohini’s court imposed a condition on his departure, stating that he would not leave Delhi without the court’s permission.

Earlier on 12 January the Rohini court rejected Ashutosh Bhardwai’s bail plea because of the gravity and sensitivity of the allegations. The court said that the investigation against Ashutosh is still in its initial stages.

However, Anjali was killed in the early hours of the New Year after her scooter was hit by a car and she was dragged under the vehicle for 13 kilometers on the city’s roads.
