India, Sept. 17 -- The counsel representing Sandeep Kaur, the wife of the finance ministry official who died after his motorcycle was mowed down by a BMW in Delhi, has told a court that the accused driver, Gaganpreet Kaur, failed in her duty to ensure prompt medical aid to the victims.

He said that while an expensive car could keep its driver safe, it did nothing for those injured in a crash, reported PTI.

Navjot Singh, a deputy secretary in the economic affairs department of the finance ministry, and his wife, Sandeep Kaur, were on a motorcycle when it was hit by a BMW driven by Gaganpreet. Sandeep survived with injuries while Navjot Singh succumbed.

The driver was arrested on Monday afternoon.
