The crash, which occurred on May 19, claimed the lives of two young IT professionals, Ashwini Koshta and Aneesh Awadhiya, when a speeding Porsche driven by a 17-year-old collided into a motorbike. The police reported that the teenager was drunk at the time of the accident.
Patole alleged that the MLA, whose son was allegedly involved in the accident, used his influence to cover up the matter. He claimed that the Sassoon General Hospital in Pune was a five-star hospital for criminals, where two doctors were arrested for allegedly tampering with evidence.
The head of forensics department Dr Ajay Taware and Dr Shrihari Halnor, who took the blood sample from the juvenile accused, were arrested after it was found that the blood samples of the minor involved were switched with those of another person who hadn't consumed alcohol.
The Pune Police also claimed that the teen's original blood sample was found in a dustbin, and the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) report showed no alcohol in the first blood sample. This raised doubts, and a second blood test was done at a different hospital, which confirmed that the samples were from two different individuals.
The Pune Porsche accident caused outrage after the Juvenile Justice Board (JJB) granted bail to the minor accused in around 15 hours. The JJB had told him to write an essay on road accidents. This decision, however, was overturned later, and the minor was sent to an observation home until June 5. His father and real estate developer Vishal Agarwal and grandfather have also been arrested in connection with the case, accused of attempting to bribe and threaten the family's driver to take the blame for the accident.
The Pune Porsche crash has sparked outrage and raised questions about the influence of politicians and the wealthy in the justice system.
The Indian National Congress is a political party in India that was founded in 1885. It has been a major force in Indian politics and has produced many prominent leaders, including Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru.
