A Delhi court has granted bail to Gaganpreet Kaur, the accused in a fatal BMW crash that resulted in the death of a senior Finance Ministry official. The Patiala House Court approved her bail on a bond of ₹1 lakh, along with two sureties.

The court imposed several conditions for her release, including the surrender of her passport and a requirement to be present at every hearing related to the case.

**Ambulance Scrutiny: Questions Raised Over Negligence**

During proceedings, the court questioned the negligence of the ambulance that arrived at the accident site. Although the ambulance reportedly reached within seconds, it failed to take the injured to the hospital promptly.

The court remarked, “What should be done with this ambulance? Are they not accused of the offense of death due to a negligent act?” indicating serious concerns regarding the emergency response.

**Crash Details and Aftermath**

The accident took place near Dhaula Kuan when Gaganpreet Kaur’s BMW collided with a motorcycle carrying Navjot Singh, Deputy Secretary in the Department of Economic Affairs, and his wife, Sandeep Kaur.

Tragically, Singh succumbed to his injuries, while his wife sustained critical injuries. Investigations revealed that the couple was transported to Nulife Hospital in North Delhi, approximately 19 kilometers away from the accident location.

Singh’s family has alleged that valuable time was lost because the victims were not urgently taken to a nearby hospital.

**Legal Proceedings**

Gaganpreet Kaur has been charged with culpable homicide not amounting to murder, among other offenses under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. She is currently in judicial custody but has now been granted bail under strict conditions.

Kaur defended her actions by stating that she panicked after the accident and took the injured couple to a hospital she was familiar with.

The case continues to develop as the investigation and legal process proceed.
