A 32-year-old man from Delhi has been arrested for deliberately crashing his motorcycle into women and girls riding scooties on public roads, converting each incident into video content he uploaded to his social media channels for views and advertising income. Delhi Police's cyber team detained Gurman Singh, a resident of Subhash Nagar in Delhi, who operated channels on YouTube and Facebook under the name Road Safety Wala. His case is a troubling illustration of how the pursuit of digital earnings can push an individual toward criminal behaviour.
A Complaint Brought the Scheme to Light
The operation was exposed after a man named Sunny Arora filed a written complaint with Delhi Police. The complaint specifically alleged that the accused deliberately rammed the scooties of girls and women from behind while they were riding on public roads, and would also follow them after each collision. Taking the gravity of the allegations seriously, Delhi Police registered an FIR under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and the POCSO Act and launched a formal investigation.
Cyber Cell's Digital Forensics Traced the Accused
Delhi Police's cyber cell identified and tracked down Gurman Singh using digital forensics and technical surveillance. After taking him into custody, investigators seized his mobile phone. Examination of the device revealed a large number of objectionable videos, social media account details, and screenshots, all of which have been retained as evidence.
He Said 'Sorry Didi' to Deflect Every Suspicion
During police questioning, Gurman Singh confessed to the entire scheme. He admitted that he would deliberately collide with women's vehicles while they were on the road. Immediately after each crash, he would say "Sorry Didi" to appear remorseful and innocent, ensuring that bystanders suspected nothing and that the operation could continue without interruption. A key part of the plan involved an accomplice who would stand at a short distance from each scene and record the full incident on camera. The footage was later edited and uploaded to Facebook and YouTube.
Videos Featuring Women Generated More Reactions and Revenue
Gurman Singh told police that content featuring women attracted significantly more reactions on digital platforms compared to videos involving men, and that this higher engagement translated directly into greater financial earnings for him. This is why he chose to deliberately target women on the road rather than men. At the time of his arrest, his Facebook page had 2,10,000 followers and his YouTube channel had 21,000 subscribers. Delhi Police is currently working through the process of having all of the accused's social media handles shut down.
