Pune Car Accident Case:
A speeding car hit a motorcycle hard. The car was expensive. Hence, there were good airbags for the safety of the driver, due to which the person sitting in the car did not even get scratched, but the boy and girl travelling on the motorcycle died on the spot. But he died, and the other one was undergoing treatment in the hospital. When the people gathered at the spot ran towards the car, they found out that the boy driving the car was a minor. The boy was drunk and tried to run away, but she was caught and handed over to the police. The boy is released on bail after a few hours.
The family of the deceased is demanding punishment. The police are investigating. Now the question is, why did the court grant bail to the boy instead of sending him to police remand? And under what conditions? Why is the minor boy driving the car despite having a driver in it? After all, what punishment will he get for the death of these two people? One by one, everyone says that Kalyani Nagar of Pune, Maharashtra, is famous for late-night parties. Bars and pubs remain open till late night. Many times the people living here complained about it.

Kalyani Nagar News
Due to this, many things have happened before; something similar happened on the intervening night of 18th and 19th May, according to the report of India Today reporter Krishna Panchal, at around 8:00 in the night, Ashwini Koshta and Anish Awadiya were partying in a pub in Kalyani Nagar. When they were returning from Kalyani Nagar when they reached the Landmark Society, a grey-coloured speeding pod hit the hunting bike. The collision was so strong that Ashwini remained in the air for some time before falling to the ground. Aneesh got serious injuries. People would have hurriedly taken Ashwini to the hospital, but she, too, would have died during treatment. According to the news of Pune Times Mirror, a 17-year-old minor boy was driving the Poshe car.
The price of this car is Rs 5 crore 20 lakh. When the boy driving the car tried to run away from the spot, the crowd caught him and took him to the police. The police presented the boy before the Magistrate of Holiday Court of Pune and interrogated him, considering him as an adult. Asked for permission to do so, but the magistrate refused to give him remand to the police and also granted him bail on certain conditions. The condition was to work with the traffic police for 15 days to write an essay of 300 words on the topic of the effects of road accidents and their solutions. Kanish Awadhiya’s uncle, who showed himself to the doctor for treatment, criticized the bail granted to the minor accused and said that the bail conditions were ridiculous.
He said that the accused, who has been released as a juvenile, is a bail condition taught even to class five children. The accused drives a car worth three crores. Had he been a common man, he would have gotten trapped. He is the son of a business tycoon, which is why he was let off. Let us tell you that the minor boy is the son of a big builder.
The police have registered a case under section 304 of the IPC, bodily theft likely to result in death, while an FIR has been registered against the boy’s father under section 3 519 A of the Motorcycle Act 1988. A case has been registered against the bar which served liquor to the minor under Sections 75 and 77 of the Juvenile Justice Act. According to the news of Complete Times Mirror, the minor has recently passed the 12th examination from the CBSE board. In happiness, he was throwing a party for his friends at the Black Pub of Marriott Sweets in Kalyan Nagar.
There, his friends drank alcohol, the CCTV footage of which has also surfaced. After leaving from there, he made the driver sit on the side seat and talked about driving himself. According to the news of India Today, a person present at the spot said that I was standing with a rickshaw. It was then that a boy and a girl were crossing the road on a bike. During that time, a speeding girl hit the bike hard. There was no number plate on the car. There were three boys in the car. The speed of the car was very fast. Image in Indian Express According to the news, Ashwini Costa and Anish Awadhiya are both practising software engineers.
Both were working in an IT company in Pune. Ashwini Costa had left the job a few days ago. She was looking for a new job. People here lodged complaints several times against pubs and clubs being open late at night in Kalyani Nagar. But action still needs to be taken. Serving liquor to a minor in bars and pubs is illegal. Pune Police Commissioner Amitesh Kumar says that we will appeal in the District Court against the decision of the Holiday Court. We are demanding the boy’s remand. We had filed a case under 304 IPC in the accident incident.
He was a juvenile, so we had applied to the court to give him permission to be tried as an adult. The court rejected this permission. Today, we are appealing against that order in the District Court and took action as per the court’s order. A separate case has been filed under the Juvenile Justice Act against the girl’s father or the establishment that served her liquor despite being underage, which the Crime Branch is investigating.
We are taking both the issues very seriously. Whatever issues they are facing in the Kalyani Nagar area in particular or Pune city in general or what is being served to the underage people, we will take necessary action against them in collaboration with the concerned department. It is clear from the CCTV footage that the minor boy who committed the crime had consumed alcohol. The Police Commissioner is treating the boy as an adult and demanding to interrogate him.
