The accused has been identified as Aryan Rajvansh, who claims to be a You Tuber. The cab driver identified was identified as Kulbhushan Sharma. 

The police informed that the incident took place on June 23. Aryan hired a cab from the city's Dwarka Mor to Kashmere Gate ISBT. As the cab moved towards its destination, he took out a gun and held the cab driver hostage and then robbed him of his mobile phone. As the cab's fuel was running low, Sharma turned it towards a fuel station and tried to escape. However, he was shot in the hip. 

The accused then fled from the spot. After the incident, the locals rushed the injured cab driver to AIIMS for treatment and informed the police.

The police rushed to the spot and began a speedy investigation. The police traced him to Ayodhya and arrested from his house. 

He confessed to police that he had come to Delhi to collect his luggage from his friend’s accommodation at Dwarka and robbed the cab driver as he was facing a financial crunch. After completing his engineering, he became a rapper and started releasing his songs on social media but he could not find much success in it. 

The police have booked the accused under various sections of the IPC and the Arms Act.
