Kannada actress Divya Suresh is under scrutiny after being linked to a hit-and-run case in Bengaluru. Weeks after the accident, the traffic police identified her as the driver of the black car that hit three people in Byatarayanapura in the early hours of October 4.
Divya Suresh breaks silence on the hit-and-run case
On October 24, Suresh reacted to the allegations by sharing a screenshot of the CCTV footage, which was posted on YouTube. She also posted a comment defending herself.”The mistake was the biker’s… There were three people riding on the bike, and none of them were wearing helmets. The car driver was taking a left turn when the biker came on his own and collided with the car. Now, blaming the person in the car is utter foolishness. Please check the video or get your eyes checked. Just because someone is an actor doesn’t mean you can falsely accuse them without reason,” the comment read, according to The Free Press Journal.Suresh also wrote, “Thanks to the noble souls who commented. Truth alone triumphs.”
Police reported three people were injured
According to PTI, the accident happened in the early hours of October 4. The vehicle belonged to Divya Suresh, and she was allegedly driving it. The victims, Kiran G (25) and his cousins Anusha (24) and Anitha (33), were riding a motorcycle when they were hit by a speeding black car driven by a woman who fled the scene.Kiran and Anusha sustained minor injuries and did not require hospitalisation. Anitha suffered a broken leg and was admitted to BGS Hospital, where surgery was prescribed.

A complaint filed by Kiran led to a case being registered on October 7 under Sections 281 (rash driving or riding on a public way) and 125(a) (act endangering life or personal safety of others) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, along with other relevant sections of the Motor Vehicles Act, police said.
