The Gurugram Police, based on the CCTV findings, filed an attempt to murder charge against the accused driver. The accused, who appeared before camera from an unknown location for a media interview, claimed he did not know whether the biker was a man or woman and alleged only one side of the incident had been presented. He also questioned why videos involving one of Sia’s male friends had not emerged.
This offense carries a provision for imprisonment of up to 10 years.
“He thinks he will just hit a woman and speed away and nothing would happen to him,” Sia told NDTV before the police detained the accused. “It was a clear hit-and-run and attempt-to-murder case,” she said. Sia’s father, Rohshan Chauhan, too is clear that the family “will not rest until the accused is punished”.
