Gurugram, September 16, 2026 (Yes Punjab News)
A Gurugram court on Wednesday sent Kalyan Bainsla, the driver accused of hitting a woman biker on Golf Course Road, and his cousin Lavneesh to two days’ police custody in connection with the hit-and-run case.
The two accused were produced before Judicial Magistrate First Class (JMIC) Nidhi Beniwal, who remanded them to police custody. They will be produced before the court again on September 18.
Gurugram Police arrested Bainsla from Rajasthan’s Dausa and Lavneesh from Haryana’s Palwal a day earlier. Police said Lavneesh was allegedly present in the car when the incident took place.
The police had earlier added Section 109 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), relating to attempt to murder, to the FIR after the victim, Sia, and her family approached the authorities seeking stringent action against those involved.
The case was initially registered after police took suo motu cognisance of a video showing a car hitting a female biker on Golf Course Road. Following an investigation and analysis of CCTV footage, police added the attempt-to-murder charge, which carries a punishment of up to 10 years.
Sia’s family has submitted her written statement to Inspector Manoj Kumar, Station House Officer of Sector 56 police station. Police are also recording her detailed statement as part of the ongoing investigation.
Gurugram Police have said that lawlessness will not be tolerated and that strict action will be taken against those found responsible.
Meanwhile, Sia on Wednesday demanded strict action against all four occupants of the car, saying such action was necessary to send a message regarding women’s safety.
Speaking to IANS, Sia said she had “great expectations” from the court and wanted justice in the case.
“I stated in court yesterday that all four, who were in the car, should be arrested and that strict action taken against all of them. In my opinion, they should face harsh consequences; that is the only way to send a message to such young men—so that anyone thinking of committing such an act would think twice,” she said.
Reacting to the accused’s reported claim that he was in a hurry to use the restroom, Sia described the explanation as “despicable” and said the incident had been recorded on video.
She said the dashcam on her bike was crucial in documenting what happened.
“So many women, who might be heading to work, have to face this kind of harassment. They don’t have cameras, and often, cases like this don’t even get registered,” she said.
Sia reiterated that all four occupants should face action.
“All four must be punished; only then can we set an example for our society,” she said.
