An investigation has been launched against a Seattle police officer who mocked a girl after her death.

In fact, this year, 23-year-old Jaahnavi Kandula died after being run over by a Seattle police officer.

The whole incident was recorded in the bodycam of another police officer who had reached the spot.

In this video it was captured that the police officer who was hit by the vehicle was laughing and mocking the deceased saying that she was not of much value.

At the time of the accident, the officer was traveling at a speed of 70 km per hour, while the speed limit for driving in this zone is 25 km per hour.

After hitting the vehicle, Jaahnavi fell 100 feet away.

Kandula was supposed to complete her master's degree in information systems from Northeastern University in December this year.

It is worth mentioning that the video of Seattle police officer Kevin Dave mocking is also going viral on social media, which has also been criticized by people.
