A 27-year-old youth was on Wednesday arrested in connection with the BMW hit-and-run case, in which two persons have died, a senior police officer said.

Police arrested Vismay Shah, the owner of the BMW car after he surrendered, the officer said. "We have arrested Vismay Shah, on whose name the BMW car was registered. He  is a local eye surgeon's son."

We are questioning him and will seek his remand for further custodial interrogation," joint commissioner of police Ajay Tomar said.
