Last Updated:February 18, 2026, 08:14 IST

The accused's father reiterated that the SUV involved is part of their commercial fleet and that past challans were due to other drivers operating the vehicle.

The father of the minor accused in the Dwarka road accident that allegedly killed 23-year-old Sahil Dhaneshra has said the family is “deeply grief-stricken" and will fully cooperate with the legal process, while acknowledging his son’s role in the incident.

Speaking to ANI, he said, “…This is my son’s mistake, and I apologise for it. I will follow whatever the legal process entails. Whatever information I received, I received it from the police. My son and daughter were in the car. I run a commercial vehicle business. The vehicle is used in our business, and the challan on the vehicle is because of our drivers who drive it. This is not because of my son."

The accused’s father also said that he was unaware that his daughter was making a reel. “It wasn’t a reel, but a short video," he added.

The accident occurred on February 3 near Lal Bahadur Shastri College in Dwarka South, when a car allegedly driven by the minor without a licence collided with Sahil’s motorcycle and then struck a parked vehicle. Police registered an FIR under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita after receiving a PCR call at 11:57 am.

Sahil was found dead at the scene, while an injured taxi driver was shifted to IGI Hospital.

The juvenile was apprehended and produced before the Juvenile Justice Board, which later granted him interim bail on February 10 citing his Class 10 board examinations.

Police have seized and inspected all three vehicles and collected CCTV footage from the area. The investigation is ongoing.
