A Delhi court on Thursday granted bail to Asees Singh Chadha, who was arrested after his speeding Bentley rammed into an autorickshaw killing a foreign national and leaving three persons injured in Lutyen's Delhi.

Additional Sessions Judge Sudesh Kumar granted relief to Chadha on furnishing a bail bond of Rs 2 lakh and two sureties of the like amount. 

A speeding luxury car today rammed into an auto-rickshaw at Luteyn Delhi's Vinay Marg, killing a foreign national. The car was being driven by 19-year-old Ashis Singh Chadha, a relative of business tycoon Ponty Chadha. 

The incident took place around 1.32 pm when a speeding luxury car rammed into an auto-rickshaw at Luteyn Delhi's Vinay Marg, killing a foreign national. The car was being driven by 19-year-old Ashis Singh Chadha, a relative of business tycoon Ponty Chadha. 

Ashis was caught by locals after the accident and was handed over to police.

A case was registered against Chadha under section 279 (rash driving) and 304 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder, punishable with life imprisonment) of the Indian Penal Code, the police had said.
