Prime accused, Rakshit Chaurasia had a run-in with the cops last month

Rakshit Chaurasia, the 20-year-old law student and prime accused in the Vadodara accident case, was seen intoxicated immediately after the accident. A new report by NDTV revealed that this isn't the first incident with Rakshit involving the police. In fact, he had a close call with them in February 2025. The report shared that less than a month before Rakshit ran his car over multiple lives, leaving them injured and killing one in the Karelibaug area, he was involved in another case. 

Rakshit and his friend were found creating rucks at a residential apartment in Fatehganj, where a lawyer had called the police to complain about him. The accused and his companions further threatened and abused him, and the police took them to Sayajiganj police station. However, they were allowed to leave after submitting a written apology. Moreover, the matter was solved with a compromise, and no complaint was filed.
