In a shocking incident in Ranchi’s Doranda police station area on Tuesday, a young man was dragged for several kms by a luxury Mercedes car after he protested against the vehicle hitting a woman, officials said.

The accused driver, identified as High Court advocate Manoj Tandon, has been taken into custody. The incident occurred near Rajendra Chowk in the Doranda area of the city.

According to reports, the Mercedes first struck a woman. When a young man who was present at the spot objected and
