An illegal immigrant trucker accused of causing a pile-up that left three people dead in California appeared in court wearing a turban — a request that went unfulfilled during each of his prior appearances.

Jashanpreet Singh, a 21-year-old Indian migrant, is accused of causing a collision involving eight vehicles on the westbound 10 Freeway in San Bernardino County in October.

His Monday court hearing was delayed by a staggering three hours as officials waited for Singh’s Punjabi translator.
 
Singh appeared in standard orange jail scrubs – now complete with his Sikh turban on his head.

He had requested to wear the traditional religious garb, but his head remained bare during each of his prior hearings. He was permitted to keep it on when police took his mugshot photo after his arrest.
