Court Charges Porsche Driver with Culpable Homicide in Chandigarh Accident
A Chandigarh court has framed charges of culpable homicide not amounting to murder against Sanjeev Babuta, a businessman accused of causing a fatal accident last year. On March 10, 2025, Babuta's Porsche, reportedly driven on the wrong side at high speed, collided with 23-year-old Activa rider Ankit, who died at the scene. Two women on another scooter were also injured. The charge was added about a week after the accident following family and public protests. If convicted, Babuta faces five to ten years in prison and a fine.
