A court of Judicial Magistrate First Class at Himmatnagar in Sabarkantha district on Thursday convicted local BJP MLA Rajendrasinh Chavda for rash and negligent driving.
The court convicted Chavda under provisions of the IPC and the Motor Vehicles Act, and sentenced him to three months’ simple imprisonment. It also imposed a fine of Rs 2,600.
The conviction was suspended, so that the MLA can approach higher forum to challenge the judgment.
According to R K Charan, who appeared for complainant in the case Ajay Patel, the incident took place on December 12, 2013 when Chavda, who was driving his car “rashly and negligently”, rammed the vehicle into Patel’s car.
