Sia released a video statement on Instagram rebutting Kalyan Bainsla’s account of the Gurugram incident on Golf Course Road.

Bainsla had said in televised interviews that the motorcycle rider was behaving erratically and that he did not know a woman was riding.

Sia said camera footage shows a clear-cut case of hit-and-run and questioned why the driver fled without checking on her.

She also said Bainsla’s public expression of remorse amounted to a sympathy-seeking act.

More context

One report said Bainsla claimed the car hit the motorcycle after he lost control near a U-turn and that he fled because he feared a biker group.

Police moved ahead with an FIR in the case, with reports citing charges including harassment, attempted murder and hit-and-run, while another report said the case was registered under Sections 281 and 125 of the BNS.

Police also took cognisance of online videos related to the incident and were expected to record Sia’s statement.
