On Sunday, 30 June, around 11:20 pm, emergency services were called to Abell Road, Melonba, after reports of an injured man located roadside.

The man, later identified as Damodar Shrestha, a visiting grandfather from Nepal, was treated by NSW Ambulance paramedics but died at the scene.

Shrestha, from Nepal, was visiting his daughter's family in Australia.
Singh, who later appeared at the Sydney Downing Centre on Thursday, 11 July, has been granted conditional bail.

He is required to report to the Riverstone Police Station every day between 6 am and 8 pm and may not enter any international airport or other point of departure from Australia.

Deputy Chief Magistrate Sharon Freund also ordered that he needs to live at a court-specified location in NSW and is not to get in the driver's seat of any motor vehicle.

Upon the court’s order, Singh surrendered his passport to the police officer in charge and is not to apply for another passport.

The matter is now listed for committal in September 2024.
