Ring Road car crash: Cops yet to confirm where car was headed

Jaipur: A day after four persons were killed in a car crash on Ring Road under the Shivdaspura police station area here, police are still clueless about where they were going in the car. Another aspect which remains shrouded in mystery is how three college students knew or came to know the three other boys travelling with them.
Rajesh Singh, 27) a resident of Niwaru Road, was driving the car when it crashed into a median curb on Tuesday. He died on the spot. Three girls who were travelling in the car died. They were students at a private residential university near Tonk.
Cops are still perplexed about how the three students met Singh and where they were headed early Tuesday morning. “There were six persons in the car. Two survivors, Shubh and Yash, both residents of Jaipur, are battling for life. They are not in a condition to divulge any details,” said an officer.
The police did not say if they had tried to speak to the university administration about what time the girls left the campus and if the authorities gave any kind of requisite permission for the same or not.
“This is a case of accident, so it is not essential to the investigation where they were coming from and how they knew each other,” said an officer.
While Singh’s body was handed over to the family after postmortem on Tuesday, the bodies of the three friends from a private university, identified as Dhanusha TK, 20, a native of Ernakulam in Kerala, Arya Arti, 20, a resident of Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh, and Anshika Mishra, 20, a resident of Gujarat, were handed over to their families on Wednesday.
Anishka’s autopsy was conducted at the Jaipuria hospital, while Arya and Dhanusha’s post-mortem was done at a private medical university near Sitapura.
Arya’s uncle KK Jaiswal said, “She had been studying at the university for a long time. We are all in shock. We will return home and mull over what next step to take.”
Anshika’s family and relatives said that she was planning to return home after her semester examination.
“Last time when we spoke, she wanted to come to Jaipur from the campus to shop for a family function,” said her cousin.
Dhanusha’s relative Sudheer said that her family members said that they did not know anything about Singh, who was driving the car, or about two other boys.
