Pune builder Vishal Agarwal and his wife Shivani will be presented before a special holiday court on Sunday amid allegations that the family tried to cover-up the deadly accident by their son.
The 17-year-old boy, in an inebriated condition, drove his Porsche car and fatally knocked down two IT professionals travelling on a motorbike in Kalyani Nagar area of Maharashtra’s Pune city on May 19.
The police have registered three separate cases in the matter. The cases include an FIR in connection with the accident and the second one against the bar that allegedly served liquor to the juvenile.
Police have booked the boy’s father for allowing him to drive the car without a valid license. A third case is about the wrongful confinement and coercion of the family driver to take the blame for the accident.
