The BMW driven by Kaur allegedly rammed into a motorcycle near Delhi Cantonment on Sunday, also hitting a bus during the collision. Navjot Singh, Deputy Secretary in the Ministry of Finance and a resident of Hari Nagar, succumbed to his injuries, while his wife sustained multiple fractures and head injuries.
Deceased Navjot Singh’s advocate, Ishan Dewan, told ANI: “The police demanded judicial custody and not police custody. The court has granted judicial custody for two days. The lawyer of the accused has moved a bail application today… What is important right now is that the unfortunate incident that has happened should not happen again… We will present all facts in the court.”
