The case in question involves a 17-year-old boy, son of a prominent real estate developer, who was allegedly under the influence of alcohol when he crashed his Porsche into a motorcycle on May 19, killing two software engineers. The incident sparked widespread outrage after the juvenile justice board granted the boy bail and asked him to write an essay on road accidents.
According to reports, Tingre had visited the Yerwada Police Station, where the case was registered, prompting opposition parties to accuse him of attempting to influence the investigation. Tingre has denied these allegations, calling them baseless.
Commissioner Kumar revealed that the police had indeed interrogated Tingre in connection with the case, after the arrest of the Agrawal family in June.
