Gurgaon Accident Victim Rejects Claims of Mutual Negligence, Calls for Arrest of All Car Occupants
Gurgaon accident victim Sia on Wednesday refuted claims circulated by supporters of the accused, Kalyan Bainsla, on social media. She dismissed the narrative suggesting the collision was due to mutual negligence or a panic reaction, labeling statements from Bainsla and his lawyer as "lies." Sia reiterated that camera footage shows Bainsla ran a red light, intentionally struck her two-wheeler, and fled the scene.
Sia emphasized that all four occupants of the car should face legal action. She stated that this is the initial step in the process and demanded the arrest of all four individuals, advocating for the strictest possible action against them, as they all fled together after the incident.
Sia's father rejected explanations from the accused's side, which cited a medical or personal emergency for the reckless driving, calling these claims baseless. He noted that if there was an urgent need, the driver could have slowed down or stopped the car.
Regarding the legal proceedings, Sia's father confirmed that Sia provided her statement under Section 164 before a judge at the Noida court yesterday, followed by a medical examination at a local hospital. He also provided an update on Sia's condition, stating that the crash exacerbated her pain and resulted in internal injuries. She is scheduled to undergo X-rays, MRIs, and further treatment at a Delhi hospital.
This development follows the detention of Kalyan Bainsla by Gurgaon Police in Dausa, Rajasthan. His detention occurred after a video of the incident on Golf Course Road went viral on social media, depicting the collision between Sia's two-wheeler and the car allegedly driven by Bainsla, leading to police action.
