On a sunny Saturday in New Delhi, the bail hearing for Gaganpreet Kaur, the main suspect in the fatal BMW accident case, was postponed until September 24. The court accepted the police's request for more time as they had yet to seize Kaur's mobile phone and driving license. According to Judicial Magistrate Ankit Garg, the investigators were not in favor of granting bail to Kaur at this stage as the investigation was still in its early stages. The police argued that Kaur's mobile phone, which she used to contact her family after the accident, was a crucial piece of evidence.
During the court proceedings, the prosecutor stated, "We have not yet recovered the mobile phone and driving license of the accused." The defence counsel, however, informed the court that Kaur's phone was with her husband and would be handed over to the police by Saturday evening. He also clarified that Kaur's driving license was previously given to the investigators, but if it is not on record, the family is willing to resubmit it to the police.
Kaur was arrested for her involvement in the death of Navjot Singh, Deputy Secretary in the Ministry of Finance, and serious injuries to his wife, Sandeep Kaur, in an accident on September 14 near Dhaula Kuan. The accident took place around 1 PM near the Delhi Cantt Metro Station when the couple was returning from Bangla Sahib Gurdwara on a motorcycle. They were hit by a BMW car, allegedly driven by Gaganpreet Kaur, while her husband was sitting in the passenger seat.
In a separate development, the court also issued a notice to the police on another application filed by the accused, requesting the preservation of CCTV footage from the accident site. However, during the court proceedings, it was mentioned that there is no legal provision allowing the sharing of CCTV footage with the accused in a criminal case.
After the accident, the police registered a case under various penal provisions, including culpable homicide not amounting to murder, and rash and negligent driving. They are also investigating possible attempts to tamper with the evidence. Meanwhile, in a parallel development, the court was informed that Kaur's phone and driving license will be handed over to the police, and the investigation will continue in a fair and just manner.
