Hounslow: £5,000 to catch driver who hit a mother pushing a pram, leaving her with life-threatening injuries

We are offering a reward of up to £,5000 for any information we receive that leads to the conviction of the person responsible for a hit and run which happened on Friday, 3 February at about 12.25pm on North Hyde Lane, in Hounslow, London.

Rajdeep Kaur, aged 37, was pushing her daughter aged 13 months in a pram. As she crossed North Hyde Lane, a silver BMW overtook the line of traffic in the wrong direction, hitting her and narrowly missing the pram. She was thrown several feet in the air, leaving her with life-threatening injuries. The pram remained in the road with the potential of being struck by further vehicles. 

The BMW did not stop at the scene and the driver has not come forward.

Emergency services were called and Mrs Kaur was taken to hospital with leg and pelvis injuries. Her daughter was luckily unhurt. 

Mrs Kaur remained in hospital for several months. Miraculously she survived but remains immobile and unable to care independently for her child. She is now able to walk a few steps with the aid of a walking frame but will never make a full recovery from her injuries.

Witnesses to the incident captured the number plates of the car, but these were later found to be cloned. The car was a BMW X5.

“Our thoughts are very much with Mrs Kaur, a mother whose life will never be the same again due to her injuries.

“You may have heard something about the vehicle or driver involved but for whatever reason you haven’t yet shared what you know. We’re appealing directly to members of the community across Hounslow with this message. If you have any information about this tragedy you can speak up and tell our charity what you know. Lots of people mistakenly think we are part of the police.  We are completely independent and will never judge or ask for any of your personal details. 

“What you tell us could help find some kind of justice for Mrs Kaur and her family and help make our streets safer for everyone.”
