Pune car accident: Grandfather, father of minor accused remanded to police custody till May 31

Father of the accused 17-year-old boy

Pune: Pune District Court on Tuesday sent the father and grandfather of the minor accused involved in the Pune car accident case to police custody till May 31.

Earlier, the Pune Police Crime Branch unit on May 25 morning arrested the grandfather of the minor accused of killing two motocycle-borne persons in Pune City earlier this week after ramming into them the luxury car he was allegedly driving.

The commissioner of Pune city police, Amitesh Kumar, said that the grandfather of the accused was arrested. A separate FIR has been registered against him under IPC sections 365 and 368.

The Pune City Police last week questioned the 17-year-old's grandfather in connection with the incident that took place early on Sunday morning in Pune's Kayani Nagar.

The Pune Police commissioner earlier said that efforts were on to try the minor accused as an adult.

He confirmed that an effort was made to frame the person employed for driving the Porsche car after the accident, and added that police are investigating his statement.
