In the ongoing investigation of the Pune crash, where a 17-year-old boy is accused of causing a fatal accident, new developments have emerged. The teenager, son of real estate developer Vishal Agarwal, along with his two friends, has alleged that the family driver was actually behind the wheel at the time of the incident.
The minor's claims have led the police to re-examine the driver, who had previously stated that he was driving the Porsche when it collided with a motorbike, killing two people. Following these claims, the police are questioning the driver again today to verify the details.
The incident has seen significant legal action, with a Pune court recently canceling the bail granted to the minor and ordering his transfer to a juvenile center. This decision came amid mounting scrutiny and public outcry over the case.
India Today’s correspondent, Divyesh Singh, reports that the Pune police are actively investigating the circumstances of the accident. The police have recovered the mobile phone of Vishal Agarwal and are working to uncover additional details related to the accident from the device.
In addition to questioning the driver, the Pune crime branch is also interrogating Surendra Agarwal, the grandfather of the accused minor. The police aim to gather more information about the interactions between Surendra, his son Vishal, and his grandson on the day of the accident to gain a deeper understanding of the case.
Vishal Agarwal has maintained that his driver was responsible for driving the Porsche at the time of the crash. As the investigation continues, the police are meticulously examining all testimonies and evidence to establish a clear narrative of the events leading up to the fatal accident.
