Patiala House Court has instructed authorities to preserve CCTV footage related to the September 14 BMW crash in Dhaula Kuan that resulted in the death of Navjot Singh and critical injuries to his wife, with Gaganpreet Kaur, the accused, awaiting a bail decision and facing charges under the Bharatiya Nyaya Samhita.

Investigation Trail

According to investigators, Gaganpreet admitted to panicking after the crash and driving the victims nearly 20 km away to Nulife Hospital in GTB Nagar, bypassing closer medical facilities such as RR Hospital, RML, DDU, and AIIMS. She told police she trusted Nulife due to previous treatment experiences during the pandemic.

Her husband, Parikshit Kakkar, has also been questioned. He claimed ignorance about the circumstances of the accident and said Gaganpreet only informed him later that she had taken the victims to the hospital.

Family’s Concerns and Police Probe

Navjot Singh’s family has raised serious concerns about the delay in seeking immediate treatment at nearby hospitals. Police are now cross-verifying Parikshit’s statements with other evidence, including CCTV and witness accounts.

The case continues to draw attention as the court weighs the bail plea, the evidence preservation request, and the broader implications of Gaganpreet’s conduct following the fatal crash.
