A Delhi magistrate delayed the bail hearing for Gaganpreet Kaur until September 24 after police argued they needed more time to collect evidence. Authorities told Judicial Magistrate Ankit Garg they had not retrieved Kaur's mobile device and driver's permit, which they consider essential to their investigation. The defendant faces charges related to a fatal BMW collision that killed Navjot Singh, a Deputy Secretary at the Finance Ministry, and injured his wife Sandeep Kaur on September 14. Defense lawyers assured the court that Kaur's family would provide the missing phone and license by Saturday evening. Prosecutors maintain that the investigation remains in early stages.
The deadly crash occurred at 1 P.M. near Delhi Cantt Metro Station when the BMW struck the couple's motorcycle as they returned from Bangla Sahib Gurdwara. Parikshit, Kaur's husband, occupied the passenger seat during the incident. Police have filed charges under multiple sections, encompassing culpable homicide not amounting to murder and reckless driving. The court also addressed a separate request from the defense seeking preservation of surveillance footage from the accident location. Investigators continue examining potential evidence tampering in the case.
