In a hit-and-run case that shook Gujarat’s Vadodara on the night of Holika Dahan, accused Rakshit Chaurasia rammed his car into three two-wheelers near Amrapali Complex in the Karelibaug area.<\/p>\n

The accused has been sent for further remand and the city Police Commissioner took action, transferring the three Assistant Sub-Inspectors (ASIs) to different departments as punishment for breaking protocol.<\/p>\n

On the night of March 14 during Holika Dahan celebrations, Rakshit Chaurasia was allegedly overspeeding when he lost control of his car and hit three two-wheelers, leaving several people injured.<\/p>\n

After the incident, Rakshit fled the spot, but the police later tracked him down and arrested him.<\/p>\n

Initially, the court granted the police a one-day remand to question Rakshit.<\/p>\n

However, during the investigation, new evidence emerged prompting the police to present him in court again.<\/p>\n

On March 13, the court approved an additional two-day remand for further questioning.<\/p>\n

Rakshit managed to present his version of events to the media while in police custody.<\/p>\n

This action violated police protocol, as an accused person is not allowed to make public statements while in custody.<\/p>\n

It was later revealed that three ASIs from the Traffic department assisted Rakshit in reaching the media.<\/p>\n

During his arrest, Rakshit was heard shouting the phrases “Another Round” and “Nikita”. These cryptic words have raised suspicion, leading the police to expand the investigation into these angles.<\/p>\n

Sources suggest that these terms could be linked to the motive behind the crime or potential accomplices.<\/p>\n

The Vadodara police are now investigating more than seven key aspects of the case, including Rakshit’s connections and the possibility of a pre-planned involvement.<\/p>\n

The authorities aim to uncover whether this was an accidental incident or a deliberate act.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the victims’ families and local residents are demanding strict action against Rakshit and thorough accountability for the police officers who assisted him.<\/p>\n
