Delhi BMW Crash Chargesheet Says Victim Could Have Survived With Timely Care

Police blame a diversion to a far-off nursing home for the loss of crucial trauma care.

Overview

  • Delhi Police filed a 400-page report last week before Judicial Magistrate Ankit Garg at Patiala House Court, compiling forensic, medical and witness evidence.
  • Investigators say nearby hospitals were 10–15 minutes away but the injured were driven about 20 km to Nulife Hospital in GTB Nagar, a 23-minute trip described as wasting the “golden hour.”
  • A speed analysis obtained from BMW estimates the X5 was traveling at roughly 100–110 km/h in a 50 km/h zone before overturning and hitting Navjot Singh’s motorcycle.
  • Citing the post-mortem, the filing states Singh was alive for at least 15 minutes after impact and might have survived with prompt treatment.
  • Police allege the accused refused on-scene ambulance help, found no fault with responders, and are probing distant family links to Nulife, possible medical-record manipulation and a disputed ICU self-admission.
