Five people, including three women, were killed and one man critically injured after a Thar they were travelling in crashed into a concrete wall on the Delhi-Jaipur Expressway early Saturday, police said.
Officers said the black Mahindra Thar was heading towards Jaipur when it lost control near exit number nine of the expressway at around 4.30 a.m.
“The impact was such that it killed four of them instantly at the spot. An injured man and a woman were rushed to Medanta Hospital in Sector 38. But the woman died during treatment,” said Sandeep Turan, public relations officer of the Gurugram police.

“It may take some time before the names of the deceased and injured persons become clear. We have established contact with concerned persons with the help of the registration number of the Thar,” he said.
Investigators noted that details such as where the group had started from and where they were headed will be confirmed once family members arrive.
