A woman was killed and her friend was severely injured after a man hit them with his SUV following a row in front of a restaurant at a posh area of Rajasthan's Jaipur early on Tuesday morning.

The deceased, Uma Suthar, and Rajkumar had on Monday night gone to a restaurant-bar on SL Marg in Jaipur where the latter is also a partner.

Rajkumar and Uma inspected construction work on the rooftop and returned to the restaurant to have dinner around 11 pm, police said.

According to police, the accused, Mangesh, was also having drinks with his girlfriend there and after some time started passing comments.     

When Rajkumar objected, Mangesh said he already knew him, a news agency PTI report quoted police as saying.

"After this, the four sat together and engaged in normal conversations, however, Mangesh allegedly tried to touch Uma, said a police officer, citing the allegations made in the FIR lodged on Rajkumar's complaint.

While Uma booked a cab for her and Rajkumar to leave the restaurant at around 5 am, Mangesh and his girlfriend came there and picked up a fight.

As the fight escalated, Mangesh left only to return in his SUV and drove over Rajkumar and Uma, who were waiting for the cab, police said.

The restaurant staff rushed both Uma and Rajkumar to a nearby hospital where Uma succumbed to injuries, while the latter is still under treatment, police said.

Police have booked Mangesh and are examining CCTV footage as part of their investigation.
