Jammu: CJM court in Jammu has denied bail to a 19-year-old man who allegedly ran over a 68-year-old under his SUV, leaving him with a fractured skull and brain hemorrhage, after the elderly man’s scooter grazed his recklessly driven vehicle. The court termed the accused’s act a deliberate ‘ attempt to murder ’ a helpless senior citizen.
“Running over the victim a second time reflects deliberate intent. Such incidents are a grave threat to public peace and must be dealt with firmly,” CJM Preet Simran Kour observed on Friday.
A viral CCTV footage shows the accused, Mannan Anand , reversing his Thar and crashing into Kamal Kant Dutt , who had just managed to rise to his feet after falling from the scooter grazed by the speeding SUV in Jammu’s Gandhi Nagar on July 27.
Dutt was rushed to GMC Jammu before being referred to Chandigarh’s Fortis Hospital, where he remains in critical condition.
