The cab owner was identified as Deepak, a resident of Gurugram and a team was sent to his house.

Police found that the car was sold to many persons and was also being used by many drivers. The drivers used to take bookings through Ola.

"Finally, we traced the last driver who was operating it. He told us he got a booking from Rohini to Vikaspuri by a girl and two boys. On the way, they had a fight. We traced the girl and the boys on the basis of their booking. They told us that due to an altercation, the girl got down the car and her friend forcefully got her back into the car," the official said.
