A 57-year-old domestic worker was allegedly run over by a woman driving a Mahindra Thar inside a residential society in Gurugram. According to police, the driver transported the injured woman to a private hospital, but after the doctors pronounced her dead, she reportedly returned her corpse and dumped it at the scene of the collision. The incident took place at Ansal Versalia Society in Sector 67, Gurugram. The deceased has been identified as Guddi, a resident of Mahoba in Uttar Pradesh.
Guddi was sleeping on the ground-floor parking area when the incident happened, according to authorities, after finishing work at one of the society's apartments. The car reportedly ploughed over a woman who lived in the same building when she was reversing her Thar.
According to police, the driver exited the car and took Guddi to a private hospital in a different vehicle. However, following an assessment, medical professionals pronounced the domestic helper deceased. The lady reportedly put Guddi's body back at the precise spot in the parking lot where the accident had occurred after returning to the community, according to investigators.
