The victim, Bharathi Mukhi, worked at the Lifestyle clothing store at Inorbit Mall. She died after being hit by the luxury car while crossing the road near her workplace on August 16.

Police identified Sanjush as the person driving the car at the time of the accident. He has not been arrested so far.

Why has the accused not been arrested?

Madhapur Assistant Commissioner of Police Ch Sridhar said a notice had been served on Sanjush.

According to the officer, the accused has not been arrested because the offence is bailable and carries a maximum punishment of less than seven years.

The case has been registered under Section 106(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), which deals with causing death by a rash or negligent act that does not amount to culpable homicide.

How the fatal crash happened

According to the FIR, Bharathi and her colleague, Pooja Ashok Alone, 26, had gone towards the nearby ITC Kohenur area at around 3 pm on Sunday to have lunch.

While returning to their workplace, Bharathi attempted to cross the road in front of Inorbit Mall when she was allegedly hit by the Aston Martin bearing registration number TG-09-G-0666.

The impact left Bharathi with severe head injuries, and she suffered heavy bleeding.

Police said she was taken to Apollo Hospital in Jubilee Hills in the same car. However, she was declared dead at the hospital.

Colleague informed store manager

Following the crash, Bharathi's colleague Pooja informed the store manager, Ashwin Kumar, who subsequently alerted the police.

The FIR alleges that the Aston Martin was being driven at high speed and in a rash and negligent manner when it struck Bharathi.

The investigation is underway.
