Assam film actress arrested in hit-and-run case as victim dies
Assamese film actress Nandini Kashyap, who played the lead role in the recent box office hit 'Rudra', was arrested on Wednesday for a hit-and-run accident, in which a 21-year-old man was killed, police said. Guwahati Police Deputy Commissioner (Traffic) Jayanta Sarathi Borah told PTI that the actress was arrested around 1.30 am after being detained on Tuesday. 'We have produced her in the court and sought five days of police remand. We are waiting for the court order now,' he said. The accident took place at Dakkhingaon area in the early hours of Friday, when an SUV allegedly driven by the actress hit a two-wheeler, Borah said. 'Samiul Haque, who was riding the two-wheeler, was critically injured. He was taken to the Gauhati Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) for treatment. From there, he was taken to Apollo Hospital for advanced treatment. However, he succumbed to his injuries yesterday,' he added. The DCP said the initial FIR did not name the actress, who was called for questioning the next day of the accident. 'The earlier sections were bailable. However, with the victim dying, we added non-bailable sections in the case and arrested her,' he said. When asked why the police did not take action earlier, Borah claimed that the traffic branch did not know about the accident. A CCTV footage of the accident showed that Haque, a student of Nalbari Polytechnic Institute, was run over by the speeding SUV. Eyewitnesses claimed that the actress did not stop to check on the victim and instead fled from the scene. Friends of Haque, who was returning home after repairing streetlights of Guwahati Municipal Corporation (GMC), chased down the SUV to an apartment complex at Kahilipara and confronted her. Borah said, 'Kashyap's vehicle was penalised several times for speeding and many challans were issued in different districts.' Meanwhile, forensic experts were called for examination of the two vehicles. They have done a preliminary survey, and a report is expected within the next seven days, an official said. Haque hailed from a poor family and was supporting his education by working part-time with the GMC.

Victim was repairing street lights when Assam actor's car hit
Assamese actor Nandini Kashyap was arrested for allegedly killing a 21-year-old Nalbari Polytechnic student in a hit-and-run incident on July 25, police said on Wednesday. Kashyap, who recently starred in the Assamese movie Rudra, was taken into custody from Rajdhani Theatre in North Guwahati on Tuesday evening and was brought to the Dispur Police Station.(Sourced) Samiul Haque, who also worked with a Guwahati Municipal Corporation (GMC) team, was on a night shift repairing street lights when a speeding Bolero SUV, allegedly driven by Kashyap, hit him in Guwahati's Udalbakra area. Haque was taken to Gauhati Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) by his fellow workers, from where he was shifted to Apollo Hospital. He died while receiving treatment on July 29. Police said that they didn't receive any information on the night of the accident. The deceased's family members lodged a complaint on July 26. An investigating officer said that though there are allegations that she was under the influence of alcohol, 'it was not possible to establish because we came to know about the incident the next day.' Kashyap, who recently starred in the Assamese movie Rudra, was taken into custody from Rajdhani Theatre in North Guwahati on Tuesday evening and was brought to the Dispur Police Station. The All Assam Polytechnic Students' Union (AAPSU) lodged a first information report (FIR). 'A case was registered against Kashyap under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS) and Bhartiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), including culpable homicide not amounting to murder and hit-and-run causing death — both non-bailable offences,' deputy commissioner of police (traffic) of Guwahati Jayanta Sarathi Bora said. Police have collected CCTV footage from the area and seized two vehicles belonging to the actor for further investigation. 'We have sent them to the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) for tests,' police said. Locals who witnessed the accident said the vehicle was at high speed and did not stop after hitting Haque, who suffered severe head injuries and multiple fractures. GMC workers said they chased the vehicle after the accident and tracked it to an apartment complex in Kahilipara, where Kashyap allegedly tried to conceal the car and assaulted a bystander who was recording the incident on his mobile phone. 'We want justice for our son. She (Nandini) didn't even come to see him once. She had promised to take care of his treatment but abandoned us when we needed help the most,' Haque's mother said. Rajdhani Theatre has officially terminated its contract with Kashyap. The theatre group, which had signed a two-year agreement with the actress, issued a statement condemning the incident and distancing itself from her. Police said Kashyap will be produced before the court on Wednesday.
