Earlier, a new CCTV footage surfaced showing the victim, who died after being dragged by a car here, leaving a hotel with her friend on her scooty.
The 20-year-old girl, identified as Anjali, died in the early hours of January 1 after her scooty was hit by a car and was dragged for around 12 kms under the Baleno car on the city's roads.
In the CCTV footage, the victim was seen leaving Vivan Palace OYO hotel at around 1.30 a.m. along with her friend after attending a New Year's party.
As per footage, the victim was wearing a pink-coloured T-shirt and her friend a red one.
The footage comes after the police traced the route which the victim had travelled.
"The room was booked by the girls and they came here late evening. Around 12 a.m, a few of their male friends came and stayed there for 10 minutes. Both the girls had an argument, they were asked to vacate the room by the hotel manager and later they went on scooty," said Rohit, a staff of the hotel.
