Pune: The mother of the teenager accused of running over two people while driving a luxury car has been arrested by Pune police, according to the most recent update in the crash investigation involving Porsche.
According to the authorities, the mother exchanged her blood sample to demonstrate that her son was not intoxicated at the time of the accident.
The accident investigation has shown that the minor's blood samples were substituted with his mother's, according to Commissioner of Police Amitesh Kumar. On May 19, in Pune's Kalyani Nagar, two techies were killed when a Porsche, which was allegedly being driven by the drunk teenager, crashed into their two-wheeler.
His father and grandfather have been detained for reportedly kidnapping the family's driver and pressuring him to accept responsibility, while the 17-year-old minor has been placed in an observation home, NDTV reported.
The powerful family's attempts to hide the crime were revealed by the investigation. In lieu of money, they first attempted to persuade their family driver to accept responsibility for the terrible accident. They abducted him when he denied, and they continued pressuring him to confess.
A three-member committee led by Dr. Pallavi Sapale, dean of Mumbai-based Grants Medical College, was appointed by the Maharashtra Medical Education to investigate the discrepancies found in the 17-year-old's medical examination at the state-run Sassoon Hospital.
The mother of the teenager had previously made an appearance in a video message, claiming that a viral video that seemed to feature her son was fake. She had also broken down in front of the camera and begged police to "protect" her son.
Madhya Pradesh engineers Aneesh Awadhiya and Ashwini Kostha, 24, were killed late on May 19 after their bike was hit by a speeding Porsche.
The teenager, who was accused of operating the vehicle while intoxicated, was released from custody after 15 hours on what were widely seen to be draconian terms. He was required to write a 300-word essay, work with traffic cops for 15 days, and get treatment for his drinking habit.
The Juvenile Justice Board changed its ruling in response to mounting protests, placing him in an observation home until June 5 until a decision is made regarding the police request for authorization to try the teenager as an adult.
