Woman Killed By Speeding Car In Another Hit-And-Run Case In MaharashtraIn yet another case of hit-and-run in Maharashtra, a woman was killed by a speeding car in Nashik on Tuesday.

Two men standing on the same side of the road can be seen rushing towards the woman after the horrific crash. She was taken to a hospital but succumbed to her injuries.

The incident comes three days after a speeding BMW hit a couple on a two-wheeler in Mumbai's Worli, resulting in the death of a 45-year-old woman. The woman, identified as Kaveri Nakhwa, was returning home with her husband, Pradip, after reportedly shopping for fish to cook.
The man behind the wheels was Mihir Shah, the son of politician Rajesh Shah, a member of Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's Shiv Sena faction.
She was dragged for 1.5 km after the collision before the BMW was stopped. The police said the CCTV footage indicates Shah then exchanged seats with his driver, pulled the woman's body out from under the car, and left it on the road. The car was then driven away.
He has been arrested along with his father and the driver.
