The next hearing in the case is scheduled for October 1, 2026.
Advocate Lalit Bindal, appearing for the accused, said that the police had sought 14-day remand, which was granted by the court.

Bainsla, 33, and his cousin Lavneesh, who was allegedly in the car with him at the time of the incident, were arrested on Tuesday by Gurugram Police from Rajasthan following a two-day search operation.
Sia, was riding the bike, when she was allegedly hit by a car. She said the incident should not be linked to casteism. The victim added that an attempt was being made on social media to shift the narrative and portray the incident as a caste-based issue, which she termed "illogical".
"Look, there is currently an attempt to shift the narrative on social media and frame this as a caste-based issue; personally, I do not want this linked to casteism. Everything being said is illogical. I firmly believe that casteism should not be a factor here. I don't understand the mentality of those targeting specific castes. This incident could have happened to anyone—any girl or even an elderly person. It isn't about casteism; it could have happened to anyone in the future. So, I feel that the current discourse is illogical," she told ANI.
When asked how she sees the ongoing investigation, the victim Sia informed that an SIT had been constituted to probe the case and she has full faith in the judiciary.
On the two accused who are yet to be arrested, Sia said all four accused should face the harshest possible punishment. "Look, I have stated that all four of them must receive the harshest possible punishment. If even one of them is let off, there is a risk that they could commit the same kind of incident in the future," she said.
A case was registered after the victim, Sia, posted a video on social media on Sunday showing a vehicle allegedly driven by Bainsla, speeding towards her and hitting her bike on the Golf Course Road. (ANI)
