Delhi BMW Crash Case: Accused Sent To 2-day Judicial Custody, Counsel Questions Culpable Homicide Section (304)

Delhi BMW Accident: Gaganpreet Kaur, accused in the Dhaula Kuan BMW accident case, has been brought to Tihar Jail after the court ordered her to a two-day judicial custody. She was arrested after Finance Ministry employee Navjot Singh died following an accident in which his bike was hit by a BMW allegedly driven by the accused.

Advocate Vikas Pahwa, Counsel for the accused Gaganpreet Kaur, said that we read the FIR, which was registered 10 hours after the incident.

“The incident happened at 1.30 pm, and an FIR was filed at 11.30 pm. The information in the FIR contradicts the press conference. It seems incorrect. If someone dies because of rash and negligent driving, then it is a bailable offence, “He added.

He claimed that this is not a case of rash and negligent driving, adding that how can this be a case of 304 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder)?

However, deceased Navjot’s advocate, Ishan Dewan, said, “The police demanded judicial custody and not police custody. The court has granted judicial custody for two days. We will oppose bail and produce all facts in the court.”
