BMW accident case: Accused Gaganpreet says crash was accidental, unintentional; mother of two seeks bail
Gaganpreet Kaur, accused in the BMW accident that killed a Finance Ministry official, seeks bail, claiming the crash was accidental. Her plea emphasizes her family ties, lack of criminal history, and cooperation with the investigation. The court has remanded her to judicial custody until September 17, while considering her bail application and ensuring medical care.
In the BMW accident case near Dhaula Kuan that claimed the life of Deputy Secretary in the Ministry of Finance, Navjot Singh, accused Gaganpreet Kaur has sought bail, stressing that the crash was "wholly accidental" and unintentional.
Her counsel highlighted that she is a mother of two minor daughters, has no criminal antecedents, and herself sustained a head injury in the accident.
The bail plea, filed under Section 480 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, argues that custodial interrogation is neither warranted nor necessary. It adds that Kaur has fully cooperated with the investigation, has deep roots in society, and there is no likelihood of absconding or tampering with evidence.
On Monday, Duty Judicial Magistrate Akanksha Singh remanded Kaur to two days' judicial custody after she was produced at the judge's residence by Delhi Police.
The court issued notice on her bail plea and listed it for hearing on September 17. It also directed jail authorities to ensure she receives proper medical care.
Senior Advocate Vikas Pahwa, alongwith Advocate Prabhav Ralli appearing for Kaur, opposed the police's remand request, contending that there was a 10-hour delay in the registration of the FIR. Advocate Ishan Dewan represented the victims.
Police have invoked provisions relating to culpable homicide not amounting to murder, among other sections.
The prosecution claims Kaur's BMW struck a divider and flipped, leading to a sequence in which the victim's motorcycle came into contact with a DTC bus. Kaur, her family members, and the motorcyclists were injured and taken to the hospital before her arrest on September 15. She is to remain in judicial custody until her bail plea is decided on September 17.
Main accused tests negative for alcohol
The blood sample report of Gaganpreet has been found negative for alcohol, an official said on Tuesday.According to police, Gaganpreet was behind the wheel, with her husband, two children and a maid, too, in the car at the time of the accident.
The family resides in Gurugram and is engaged in the manufacturing business. In the crash, they too sustained injuries and were admitted to a hospital.
A case was registered under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita sections 281 (rash driving), 125B (endangering life or personal safety of others), 105 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) and 238 (causing disappearance of evidence).
Gaganpreet was arrested on Monday afternoon after she was discharged from the hospital and was sent to two-day judicial custody after she was produced before a magistrate.
