Why it matters
This case highlights ongoing concerns regarding road safety and the legal process for handling hit-and-run accidents in urban India.
Gurugram hit-and-run accused Kalyan Bainsla and his cousin, Lavnish, who was with him in the car, were sent to two days of police remand by a city court on Wednesday (September 16, 2026), an official said.
The police had sought a two-day remand to recreate the crime scene, a request the court of Nidhi Beniwal granted.
The next hearing in the matter has been scheduled for September 18.
On Sunday (September 13), Mr. Bainsla, a gym owner, grazed his car with biker Shivani Chauhan , alias Siya, on the Golf Course road, coming at speed from behind. The contact knocked Ms. Chauhan off and sent her skidding down the road in a life threatening situation.
Meanwhile, defence counsel Lalit Bindal argued that Mr. Bainsla had already been in police custody for 24 hours, during which time the scene could have been recreated.
