Rahim Allani walked into the Superior Courthouse with a limp and the help of a cane, three years after being struck in a hit-and-run collision that left him with life-altering injuries.

Allani is attending the trial for Arjun Sahota , the man charged with impaired driving and dangerous driving causing bodily harm to Allani and failing to stop at the scene of an accident causing bodily harm.

According to an agreed statement of facts read out in court by Crown prosecutor Chris Ponesse, on Oct. 20, 2022, around 10:40 pm, Allani was walking towards the corner of York and Adelaide streets. At approximately the same time, Sahota was approaching the intersection in his late model BMW, “against traffic” driving westbound on Adelaide Street. Adelaide is a one-way street for eastbound traffic.
