Gurugram Biker Hit‑and‑Run: Car Owner Claims Friend Was Behind the Wheel

On a Sunday afternoon, a white Maruti Suzuki Ciaz careened down Gurugram’s Golf Course Road, clipped a sports bike and sped off, leaving a woman motorcyclist bruised and bewildered. The whole drama unfolded on the rider’s own helmet‑camera, later posted on Instagram under the handle rebelwheels_sia_. The rider, known online as Sia, was cruising on her Aprilia RS 457 when the car apparently tried to overtake her, lost control and slammed into her rear wheel.

What makes the story even messier is the sudden appearance of the car’s owner, a man named Manish, who spoke to ANI on September 14. He told reporters, “It’s my vehicle. I was at work, not even in the city. A friend, Kalyan Singh, borrowed it two days ago. I only heard about the accident this morning.” Manish, who serves in the Indian Army and is posted in Assam, added that he had tried calling the friend, but the line went dead. He even sent his father and a few relatives to Palwal, where Kalyan supposedly lives, to sort things out.

The Instagram video adds a human, almost cinematic layer to the incident. Sia narrates that the men inside the car were shouting, seemed intoxicated, and tried to force her to stop. When she politely asked them to keep a distance, the driver allegedly revved the engine, tried to overtake, and in the process, the Ciaz hit her bike and vanished. The footage, now viral, shows the bike being dragged for a few meters before the car disappears around a corner.

Police have opened a hit‑and‑run probe, but the case is tangled by conflicting statements. The owner’s claim that a friend was behind the wheel could shift the focus of the investigation, yet it also raises questions about vehicle lending practices among army personnel. Meanwhile, the biker community on social media is rallying behind Sia, demanding accountability and stricter enforcement against road‑rage incidents.

For now, the investigation remains ongoing. The authorities have yet to confirm Kalyan Singh’s identity or locate the vehicle, which was registered in Manish’s name in Palwal, Haryana. As the search intensifies, the incident serves as a stark reminder of how quickly a routine ride can turn into a life‑changing ordeal.
