Pune Porche Accident- JJ Board allow Pune police to question the juvenile who killed two IT professionals
The police were allowed to question the 17-year-old accused for two hours in front of the jail superintendent
New Delhi, June 1
The Juvenile Justice Board (JJB) has granted permission to the Pune police's crime branch to question the minor accused in the Porsche accident case.
Two IT professionals, Anish Awadhiya and Ashwini Koshta, were killed when the speeding Porsche, allegedly driven by the boy, hit their bike in the Kalyani Nagar area on May 19.
The police were allowed to question the 17-year-old accused for two hours in front of the jail superintendent.
After an immense outrage on the previously granted bail to the juvenile, the JJ Board had sent him to remand home. The accident has been in the news for various reasons from swapping of blood samples for alcohol test to arrest of the two doctors from Sassoon general Hospital for destroying evidence, from arrest of his realtor father Vishal Agrawal to arrest of his grandfather Surendra Agrawal for kidnapping their driver and forcing him to give false statement to police that he was driving the car and not the teen.
After the bail by a single member of the JJ Board, the Maharashtra government set up a committee to probe the conduct of the JJB members and check if norms were followed while issuing orders in the Pune car crash case.
The committee, headed by a deputy commissioner, will submit its report by next week, commissioner of the Women and Child Department.
