Priyanka's Body Handed to Family After Autopsy in Hyderabad
A medical student named Priyanka was riding a motorcycle with her friend Umesh when a car hit them and drove away.
This kind of accident, where the driver leaves, is called a hit-and-run.
Priyanka hurt her head very badly in the crash.
She was first taken to a hospital in Rajamahendravaram.
Doctors then moved her to a hospital in Hyderabad for more treatment.
Sadly, Priyanka did not get better and died on Sunday afternoon.
A doctor examined her body to understand what happened.
Then her body was given back to her family.
