Delhi Police have reported that medical examinations of the officials suspended over a tragic PCR van accident on Thana Mandir Marg revealed no traces of liquor. DCP Devesh Kumar Mahla confirmed that all suspended personnel tested negative for alcohol.

In addressing the consequences faced by the involved individuals, Mahla highlighted that the staff connected to the incident have been suspended, and action will be taken against the driver as legal proceedings continue.
