His body was sent for a post-mortem examination.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"17\"\/>The CCTV footage from the area shows several vehicles moving on the road around the time of the accident, officers said, adding that they are examining the footage to ascertain whether the taxi was indeed being chased.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"19\"\/>Based on Zaid\u2019s complaint, police registered a case under Sections 140 (kidnapping or abducting), 105 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) and 3(5) (common intention) of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/city\/delhi\/cabbie-dies-in-crash-kin-claim-he-was-chased-abducted-thrashed\/articleshow\/132056746.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Delhi: A 30-year-old taxi driver died after his car crashed into a concrete electric box in southwest Delhi\u2019s Najafgarh on Friday, with CCTV footage showing the vehicle being driven rashly moments before the impact.The family of Mohammad Ujaib, the deceased, has alleged that he was being chased by some men allegedly sent by a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":26561,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[150],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-28154","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-delhi"],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28154","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28154"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28154\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26561"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28154"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28154"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28154"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
