According to a report in Hindustan Times, “The accused – indentified as Anees Ahmed, 21 – was booked under sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and relevant sections of Motor Vehicle act. After being arrested, Ahmed was then produced in a local court.”

Talking to the leading daily, Sophie said, “I was on my way home when the speeding auto rickshaw tried to cut the lane and cross us. He misjudged the distance between the vehicles and rammed his vehicle into my new car, pulling out the grill and bumper. We then stopped him.”

The actress also told the daily that when the driver was asked for his licence, he informed that he does not have one and had started driving just a week ago. “It was ridiculous, he could have killed somebody. We called the police. My car is insured and the insurance will take care of the damage, which is over one lakh. It is upsetting that driving without licence is a prevalent practice, as it poses a threat to citizens.” Sophie said.
