Sia, who narrowly survived after a sedan allegedly rammed into her motorcycle in Gurugram, has spoken in detail about the incident, questioning the police response and accusing the driver of acting with a sense of impunity.
Sia said the incident had raised serious questions about the safety of ordinary citizens, particularly bikers, in Gurugram and Delhi. She criticised what she described as the authorities’ failure to act swiftly against the accused, Kalyan Bainsla.
“I will not give up on the fight. I will set an example,” Sia said.
Addressing Bainsla directly, she said the wider biking community was standing by her and warned that she would continue pursuing the matter.
“Wherever you are hiding like a criminal, know that the entire biking community is with me,” she said, adding that she wanted her case to serve as a warning against harassment and reckless behaviour towards women bikers.
Sia Questions Police Response
Sia questioned how people could feel safe if those accused of serious violations were able to avoid immediate action.
“It is like the department is signalling that nothing will happen to anyone who breaks the law,” she said, arguing that the case had reinforced her concerns about access to justice for ordinary citizens.
She said the entire incident had been captured on camera and questioned why the accused had not yet been arrested.
“He thinks he will just hit a woman and speed away and nothing would happen to him,” Sia said, describing the incident as a “clear hit-and-run and attempt-to-murder case.”
She also criticised what she described as inconsistent enforcement by traffic authorities. According to Sia, bikers are frequently penalised for relatively minor violations, while questions remain over the response to motorists accused of dangerous driving.
“If you impose so many restrictions on bikers in Gurgaon, you should also look at those driving four-wheelers. What are you doing about the people driving so rashly?” she asked.
Sia’s Father Accuses Bainsla Of Spreading False Claims
Sia’s father, Rohshan Chauhan, also criticised comments allegedly made by Bainsla suggesting that his daughter staged or exaggerated the incident for social media attention.
“Everything he is saying is a lie,” Chauhan said, alleging that Bainsla was under the influence of intoxicants when the crash occurred. He added that police officials were expected to record his statement and said the family would continue pursuing the case until the accused was punished.
Police, meanwhile, said they had formed five teams to locate Bainsla and were checking possible hideouts. Authorities were also examining CCTV footage from Golf Course Road as part of their investigation.
Around 48 hours after the incident, the accused had not been traced, according to the police.
Sia Says CCTV Footage Captured Violations
Sia said the available video footage appeared to capture several alleged traffic violations, including the sedan’s dark window tint, jumping a red light and the subsequent collision.
She also alleged that the driver was intoxicated and deliberately hit her. These allegations are part of her account of the incident and remain subject to the police investigation.
“I was terrified after he rammed my bike. I am glad that everything was recorded,” Sia said.
Accused Challenges Sia’s Version
In an earlier interaction with a reporter, Bainsla claimed that he did not know whether the person riding the motorcycle was a man or a woman. He also alleged that only one side of the incident had been presented publicly and questioned why videos involving one of Sia’s male friends had not surfaced.
Sia rejected his version of events. She disputed Bainsla’s claim that she and other bikers had repeatedly accelerated and slowed down on the road.
“He is saying that we were repeatedly speeding up and slowing down on the road. But my video clearly shows who was actually trying to corner whom,” she said.
She also rejected his claim that he was unaware that a woman was riding the motorcycle. According to Sia, Bainsla came close to her, saw her hair, made gestures and signalled for her to stop.
The case has since drawn attention from the wider biking community, with Sia maintaining that she intends to continue pursuing the matter and seek accountability through the legal process.
