India has urged the US to look into bodycam evidence of a Seattle cop laughing at the death of an Indian student who was struck by a speeding police car in which she lost her life.

In January, 23-year-old Jaahnavi Kandula lost her life after being struck by a police car being operated by Officer Kevin Dave. According to the reports, he was travelling at about 120 kmph as he responded to a complaint of an overdose.

The Seattle Police Department on Monday shared a video in which another officer can be heard making jokes and laughing about the incident.

The Indian Consulate in San Francisco called the way Kandula’s death was handled in a car accident was deeply troubling and demanded that those responsible be held accountable.

The mission said in a post on X (formerly known as Twitter) that they have taken up the matter strongly with local authorities in Seattle & Washington State as well as senior officials in Washington DC for a thorough investigation & action against those involved in this tragic case.

The Consulate & Embassy will continue to closely follow up on this matter with all concerned authorities, it continued.

A body-worn camera captured a chat between two union leaders for the Seattle Police Department after the deadly incident, and a city oversight agency is currently investigating.

An officer can be heard throughout the conversation indicating that the girl’s life was of limited value and that the city ought to send a check.

According to a GoFundMe page set up to help her family, Kandula was an Andhra Pradesh native who had been studying for her master’s degree at Northeastern University in Seattle.

The family remains silent. However, I ponder whether the daughters or granddaughters of these individuals are worthwhile. Her uncle Ashok Kandula was cited as saying, A life is a life.

The National conference leader added nobody is stopping the defence minister from doing so. But he warned that the Indian government must remember that Pakistan is also not wearing bangles.  He added that the neighbouring country has atom bombs, and unfortunately, that atom bomb will fall on the people of Jammu and Kashmir.

Earlier the Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said that seeing the development taking place in India, the people of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) will themselves demand to be reunited with India.  The Defence Minister had said that people should not worry. Pakistan Occupied Kashmir was, is and will remain a part of India.

Rajnath Singh was addressing a rally at West Bengal’s Darjeeling, where the BJP had nominated sitting MP Raju Bista. He said India’s power is increasing and India’s prestige is increasing around the world, and India’s growing economy is fast progressing. He added that India’s brothers and sisters in PoK will themselves demand to come with India.

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Sunday said that POK is a part of India and added that there is a resolution of the Indian Parliament which states that PoK is part of the country. He further added that people were made to forget about Pakistan Occupied Kashmir, but it is now back in the consciousness of the people of India.

Jaishankar further asked how did other people get control of POK? He said one should remember that when one has someone who is not a responsible custodian of a house, someone steals from outside.
