The Story in Brief
The body of K Priyanka, a medical student killed in a hit-and-run, was handed over to her family after an autopsy at Gandhi Hospital in Hyderabad on Monday. The family took the body to Gadwal district for last rites. Priyanka died on Sunday from a severe head injury sustained in the accident.
The accident occurred on Thursday outside a shopping mall in Rajamahendravaram. A car allegedly hit a motorcycle carrying Priyanka and fellow student Umesh, then sped away. Priyanka was initially treated locally before being shifted to Hyderabad, where she died. Umesh suffered minor injuries.
The Indian Opinion
The death of a medical student in a hit-and-run will rightly prompt calls for justice. But social media often turns such tragedies into a lynch mob against the accused before facts are out. The driver was allegedly speeding, but the investigation must establish whether it was reckless or accidental. The real test is whether the police file a chargesheet based on forensic evidence, not public pressure. That will separate accountability from speculation.
