Clarifying about the entire episode that conspired on the evening of September 6, 2021, Shetty said, “The guy was drunk, and suddenly came from somewhere. Rajat wasn’t driving rashly. He immediately took him to Cooper Hospital and got his treatment done. Yesterday night they were not getting blood, so Rajat arranged for that too, and was in the hospital till 12:30-1. Rajat’s friend is in the hospital now who is taking care of the medication and the treatment. He had himself informed the police too.”
Meanwhile, a Mid-Day report quoted a doctor treating the victim Rajesh Ramsingh Dhoot, and informed that his condition is critical. Dhoot is also reported to have sustained head injuries. He is in ICU and on oxygen support. The doctor also informed that the victim is in urgent need of blood.
The report also quoted Dhoot’s wife Babita Doot who confirmed of her husband being drunk when the accident took place.
She said, “At the hospital, Bedi told us that my husband suddenly came in front of the car. He assured to help us and said that both he and his driver Suresh were there at the hospital. But after some time, he said he was leaving briefly, but never came back.”
Babita has reportedly pleaded for the actor’s arrest. Police have registered a case against Rajat Bedi under sections 279 and 338 of IPC and called the accused on Tuesday for investigation. However, no arrest has been made so far.
