Pune Porsche Crash: Government Forms Panel to Investigate Blood Sample Tampering
Real Estate Pune:A Porsche car hit a motorcycle at Kalyani Nagar in Pune on May 19, resulting in the deaths of two software engineers. The incident has sparked widespread outrage, particularly due to allegations of tampering with the blood samples of the 17-year-old accused, the son of a prominent Pune-based real estate developer.

In response to the incident, the state government has formed a special three-member panel to investigate the matter and submit its findings. The panel, headed by Dr. Pallavi Saple, Head of Sir JJ Hospital in Mumbai, will thoroughly investigate all aspects of the case and report back to the government.

Meanwhile, the father and grandfather of the minor accused were remanded to police custody till May 31.
