**BMW Crash Case: Court Defers Gaganpreet Kaur’s Bail Hearing**

A Delhi court has postponed the bail hearing of Gaganpreet Kaur, the prime accused in a fatal BMW accident that resulted in the death of Deputy Secretary Navjot Singh and injured his wife, Sandeep.

The Patiala House Court deferred the hearing to September 24, after the police requested more time to collect crucial evidence, including Kaur’s phone and driving license. Investigators informed Judicial Magistrate Ankit Garg that they oppose granting bail at this stage, as the probe is still in its early stages.

**Evidence Collection Underway**

Kaur’s husband, Parikshit Makkad, currently holds her mobile phone, which police deem vital for the investigation. Authorities revealed that the phone contains important messages sent after the crash, and Makkad is expected to hand it over soon.

Meanwhile, Gaganpreet Kaur remains in judicial custody until September 27. She faces charges of culpable homicide not amounting to murder and rash driving related to the case.

**Preservation of CCTV Footage**

The court has also issued a notice regarding an application seeking the preservation of CCTV footage from the site of the accident. On Thursday, the court observed that there is no provision for sharing such footage with the accused in a criminal case.

Following the incident, the police registered cases under several penal provisions, including culpable homicide not amounting to murder, as well as rash and negligent driving.

**Details of the Incident and Ongoing Investigation**

The accident occurred on September 14 around 1:00 PM near Dhaula Kuan. Navjot Singh and his wife were returning from Bangla Sahib Gurdwara on a motorcycle when they were struck by Kaur’s BMW. Parikshit Makkad was in the passenger seat of the BMW at the time.

Police are also investigating possible attempts to tamper with evidence after the crash. This includes scrutiny of Kaur’s alleged visit to a hospital nearly 19 kilometers away from the accident site, which is under further examination by authorities.
