According to the complaint, the trouble began when she asked the driver to lower the car's music volume.
Despite asking the driver three times to turn the volume down, he driver refused. The situation escalated when the driver began using abusive and insulting language. When the woman insisted on reaching her destination, the driver allegedly yelled at her and asked her to get out of the vehicle midway. She told the driver that she had booked the ride to her home and could not be dropped off in the middle of the road. In response, the driver accelerated and headed in a different direction.

The police team acted immediately, tracking down and apprehending the accused from Sector-50 that very night. The accused has been identified as a resident of District Rohtak. During interrogation, he admitted that the dispute was over the music volume and that the woman talking on her phone had led him to commit the offence. The vehicle used in the incident has also been recovered from the accused's possession.
Addressing the viral social media videos of the incident, PRO Gurugram Sandeep Kumar, said, 'action had already been taken well before the footage began circulating widely of a cab driver harassing a young woman.
