That was deliberate as fuck. Attempted murder.

A lawyer who makes public comments like this is trying to farm outrage to intimidate influence the judge. He's also the defense lawyer, so unless he's monumentally stupid, he won't ever agree to fault on their part until at least the case has been judged.
The fuckers who did this are horrible, and I hope they get what they deserve, but a lawyer making public comments to victim-blame is both a nothingburger and a patent demonstration of why the "lawyers are slimy" trope is still alive and well.
Don't fall for the ragebait.
They each deserve a bullet to the face. The families that raised them don't deserve an open casket funeral.
Two of them casually wielding AKs. Yeah, I'd stay the fuck away from that group.
How the fuck can one photo pack so much male insecurity into one measly frame?
From what I have been told, Gurugram is a fucked up place. One of my friend went there for her company and was going to be paid almost 1m USD a salary a year and came back because of how toxic men were everywhere. Not just her work, but her company driver, her apartment complex security guard, her office manager. Every man was just a toxic male misogynistic pig.
She's previously also worked in Ahmedabad and Mumbai. I understand those are much better cities.
I mean, didn’t they even watch the video before preparing their statement? This is the worst try of self defence possible
What else could they come up with?
the girl came right and we went a little left
Wild understatement:
The girl moved a barely percievable 1 inch right into the centre of the lane she was already driving straight forward in, the car drove up from behind, going much faster, and swerved diagonally across 2 whole lanes to intercept her.
Yikes. Another day, another reason for north Indian men to stay home and do housework.
Women in india are safer without them.
I blame western style “male/alpha influencers”. I bet you any amount of anything and peer into their socials you will see quotes from bizarre characters such Tate, and so on. Having a backbone in this scenario would be to know when one was in the wrong and admit rather than hiding behind walls of evidence that proves otherwise.
Mysogyny in India long predates influencers.
The Indian patriarchal system of unopposed abuse of females is what western alpha influencers aspire to…
It's Honestly more complicated than that, and it's same regardless any culture. Almost every culture has rules for both men and women. I won't deny men have it more Laxed, but if you actually know about Indian culture, men have it really strict too. Plenty of restrictions on what married men can and can't do.
Now I don't wanna go into rant of how men have gotten corrupted, but the power lied in the hands of men, which means they set the rules.
And I'm not trying to say Indian system isn't deeply patriarchal. Not so fun fact, a generation or two ago, it was common for the husband's family to burn his wife alive if the dowry wasn't paid. Dowry is a huge sum of money that the women's family pays to her bridegrooms family.
I only mean as in addition - no where did I say disregard the existing cultural context
Can we just appreciate this being one of the few times a red circle actually helped clarify something.
Were they drunk? Or was she targeted for some reason? In the longer clip, they pull up alongside her on her left and appear to be taunting her. Then she pulls up ahead. They came up and drove into her, appearing to be deliberately, from the other side.
It's wild but I found myself wondering who's filming. At first I thought she had a drone, but it seems more likely, given the crash footage, that it's a mounted camera and for whatever reason you can't see the mount. Maybe you can and I didn't notice. Wild that we have tech like that. I also saw an Instagram logo somewhere on the bike. So they're not wrong, she films her rides and posts them. She may be some kind of influencer. Doesn't justify attempted murder. Amazing that they assumed people might think it does. Influencers are annoying, sure, but do any sane people really think they should just be murdered in the street? I sure don't.
Or was she targeted for some reason?
She’s an unaccompanied woman in a religion-based fascist country.
360 cameras usually leave out the mount. You can see that in a lot of extreme sports footage. I guess she is an influencer, but that's only relevant because of their ridiculous defense.
What on earth is that grammar in the article title?? I can't read it properly.
That's standard news headline grammar as far as I'm aware
That is a damn fine gimbal right there. It tracked with the action perfectly.
Cars are weapons. Drinking while shooting is dumb. Maybe one day when they are playing around sumtin will go off. Stupid is as stooooopid does. Thats what my mama always taught me. Watch out for the dum dums.
