He had been challaned thrice last year for overspeeding and wrong parking. Hence, after seeing his previous cases, he has been charged under culpable homicide not amounting to murder, section 304 of the IPC. These statements came from the DCP (North) Madhur Verma. Earlier the police had apprehended the juvenile when the accident took place, but later he was released on bail because he was below 18.
On Friday, the police arrested the juvenile’s father, an Old-Delhi businessman under Sections 109/304 (abetment to culpable homicide not amounting to murder) of IPC. According to the police, he had not taken a single step to prohibit his son from taking his vehicle. Thereby he had abetted the crime of the juvenile.
The incident took place on Monday when 32-year-old Sidharth Sharma was trying to cross a road and the speeding Mercedes hit him. CCTV footage revealed that during the collision Sidharth flung several feet into the air and landed 15 metres away from where he stood. In spite, of the clear CCTV footage the police didn’t any strict measure against the boy.

The Logical Indian welcomes the decision taken by the Delhi Police by putting charges against the juvenile. The job is indeed commendable as it came from the same department which earlier had not responded rightfully. This is an exemplary case where justice has been meted out in the right way.
