SHIVANI CHAUHAN posted a shaky video of her Aprilia RS 457 skidding after being struck by a white Maruti Suzuki Ciaz on Gurugram's Golf Course Road, where the vehicle's occupants made repeated inappropriate gestures before the collision.
POLICE arrested Baisla and his companion Lavnish from Rajgarh, Rajasthan; both were booked under sections 78, 79, 109 and 3(5) of the BNS and are currently held in Bhondsi Jail after bail pleas were rejected.
SIT, led by ACP Sushila of Crimes Against Women, concluded the collision was not an accident but a calculated act, citing evidence of intoxication and harassment by the driver, as per a statement released on Tuesday.
The FIR also names the incident as an attempt to murder, with police citing sections 78 (physical and digital stalking) and 79 (insulting modesty) to underline the harassment that preceded the crash.
SHIVANI, who suffered minor injuries to her hands and legs, posted the video that sparked outrage among the biker community and vowed to return to riding once she recuperates.
The SIT will file the draft charge sheet in court within a week, after which the case will proceed to a hearing scheduled for early October, according to Police Commissioner Sibash Kaviraj.
