After private mediation, she withdrew rape case

A woman last year sparked a debate across the nation after she accused a cab driver of Uber of raping her in Delhi . The driver was arrested within a week of the complaint and the Delhi High Court is hearing the case against the driver.

The woman also sued Uber in a federal court in the US in January alleging that it failed to maintain basic safety procedures. But the lady finally withdrew the case agreeing to participate in private mediation to try to resolve the lawsuit.

After this incident, Uber had introduced several safety measures for its passengers like more stringent driver checks and an in-app emergency button. India is one of Uber’s largest markets outside the United States by the number of cities covered. The company valued at around $50 billion this year.
