The accused was identified as Tarun Kumar, a resident of R.K. Puram.

“The injured was admitted at AIIMS Trauma Centre, Delhi, but could not recover and expired on March 10,” Deputy Commissioner of Police, Southwest, Rohit Meena said.
During the probe, a police team inspected the scene of the crime, enquired from residents, and checked all the CCTV cameras installed on the Sangam Marg, the Vivekanand Marg, Kama Koti Marg, and Venkateshwar Marg of R.K. Puram area to identify the offending vehicle and nab the accused.

“Kumar revealed that on the day of the incident, he was coming from Sangam cinema side on his two-wheeler at speed which resulted in the accident,” said the DCP. To evade arrest, he parked his vehicle in the west block for a few days.
