New Delhi, Biker Shivani Chauhan’s brother rejected the claim that the driver who hit her on a Gurugram road did it by accident, hours after the man was arrested in Rajasthan on Tuesday.
For Chauhan’s family, the arrest and the new charge followed days of insisting that the incident should not be treated as a routine road accident. “She warned him several times to maintain a distance. If a person causes an accident after that, his intent was clearly to crash into her. That’s not how it happens – if you have an issue, you don’t just ram your car into someone.
Kalyan Bainsla was arrested from Rajgarh in Rajasthan, two days after his speeding Maruti Ciaz allegedly rammed into Chauhan’s Aprilia RS 457 on Gurugram’s Golf Course Road, sending her skidding on the road. Following a thorough investigation and detailed analysis of CCTV footage, the charge of attempt to murder under Section 109 of the BNS has been added to the case,” Gurugram Police Commissioner Sibash Kabiraj said. The police initially registered a case at Sector 56 Police Station under Section 281 and Section 125 of the BNS after taking suo motu cognisance of the incident, according to ACP Abhilaksh Joshi.
The arrest came after Gurugram Police added an attempt-to-murder charge under Section 109 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita following an analysis of CCTV footage and a video statement released by Chauhan, who identifies herself as “Sia” on social media. You can pull over ahead, stop, and talk calmly,” he said. “We arrested the car driver, Kalyan Baisla, from Rajasthan today.
Deepankar said the family was satisfied with the action so far but believed the investigation could lead to further charges.
