Pawar clarified that he had spoken to the police commissioner on the phone regarding the matter, saying that he only wanted to ensure that the police did not come under pressure as the son of a rich man was involved. As a people's representative, we receive calls regarding such accidents. I told the police commissioner that the accused boy was from a wealthy family and there was a chance the police might be pressured. I told him not to succumb to any political pressure, Pawar said.
Meanwhile, the father and grandfather of the minor accused, who mowed down two techies in Pune, have been remanded to police custody till May 31.

The crash has ignited widespread national outrage, particularly due to the swift granting of bail to the teenager within just 15 hours.
