Overview
- Prince Singhal, 24, was found with severe head injuries next to his scooter on Naraina Flyover on October 24 while returning from a night shift, and police registered cases for rash driving, endangering life and death by negligence.
- The family and police say investigators suspect a hit-and-run involving a heavy vehicle, but nearly a week later no offending vehicle or driver has been traced through available camera feeds.
- Singhal’s sister, Diya, has publicly appealed for commuters and vehicle owners who passed the flyover toward Mayapuri between 4:15 am and 4:45 am on October 24 to share dashcam footage or eyewitness details.
- The family alleges several public CCTV units near the flyover were unusable because cameras were not working, hard disks were missing, angles were poor, or footage is controlled by other departments, limiting evidence recovery.
- The case highlights how fragmented road surveillance and storage practices can obstruct criminal probes and leaves families reliant on private dashcams and witnesses for crucial leads.
