In a shocking development, Pune’s society is buzzing with the most recent accident. Surendra Agarwal, the grandfather of the minor driver engaged in the tragic Porsche accident, was arrested by the Pune Police on May 25. The police alleged that Surendra and his child, Vishal Agarwal, attempted to frame their family driver to safeguard the minor. Also, the driver was purportedly held hostage in their home for two days while his mobile was seized by them.
The Deadly Night For Pune Porsche Crash
The incident traces back to the night of May 18-19. The 17-year-old, celebrating his Class XII results, was driving a Porsche extremely fast at around 200 kmph. The car then crashed into a bike, immediately killing two IT experts Anish Awadhia and Ashwini Koshta. Both were from Madhya Pradesh. Regardless of initial claims by the Agarwal family that their driver was in the driver’s seat, the reality at last disentangled.
Juvenile Justice Under Fire
The minor was quickly granted bail rather than a strict action, igniting the nation in a huge shock. He was asked to write a 300-word essay on road safety, assist traffic police for 15 days, and go for counseling for alcohol use. Also following public outcry, the Juvenile Justice Board sent him to a Juvenile home until June 5. Check more details on the cancelation of the granted bail.

Thus bringing up issues about justice and accountability in high-profile cases.
