During the incident, Mr. Jain was driving the car while his daughter, who lives in Vivek Vihar, was sitting beside him. “His driver was sitting behind as he didn’t know the directions,” the DCP added.

Mr. Jain had fought the MLA elections from Sagar in 2008 and lives with his family in Madhya Pradesh.
