NEW DELHI: A Honda City car hit a Mercedes near ITO on Wednesday leading to an altercation between the two parties. The accident took place around 4-45 p.m. when the Honda City driven by a businessman, Vivek Gupta, hit the Mercedes. Mr. Gupta later lodged a complaint with the Tilak Marg police alleging that though he apologised and offered to pay some money as compensation, the person travelling in the Mercedes forcibly extracted Rs.17,500 from him.
Mr. Gupta said the person, who was carrying a firearm, told him that he was a personal security guard of a Faridabad-based influential Government functionary.
As the accident spot fell under the jurisdiction of the I.P. Estate police station, the case was transferred there. The police are verifying the allegations made by Mr. Gupta. No case has been registered.
