But the deceased’s daughter, cried herself hoarse complaining, “Smriti Irani’s convoy rammed into our car, she came out, I begged her for help but she got into another car and left,” she told the ANI.

“My sister literally pleaded Irani with folded hands for help, but she did not stop,” said the victim’s son, Abhishek Nagar.

According to a media report, the Agra Police had lodged an FIR against one of Irani’s drivers for causing the accident on the complaint of the victim’s son.
