There is a lock on Deepak Khanna’s house in Mangolpuri since a 20-year-old woman died – after a car allegedly driven by him dragged her for several kilometres – in Delhi’s Sultanpuri on the first day of the new year. The 26-year-old’s neighbours don’t know much about him, except that his other name is “Kaalu”, that he drove a Gramin Sewa vehicle for a living, that his parents died years ago, and that he lived with his brother.
While new details continue to emerge in the probe, the police were on Thursday granted another four days of custody of the five suspects – all of them childhood friends. They include Deepak, his cousin Amit Khanna, Manoj Mittal, Mithun and Krishna. Except Mittal, the rest live in Mangolpuri.
