The 17-year-old boy involved in the fatal Pune Porsche crash reportedly spent Rs 48,000 within 90 minutes at one of the two pubs he visited hours before he rammed his luxury vehicle into a bike on Sunday, immediately killing two people.
The teen accused visited two pubs – Cosie restaurant and Hotel Blak Club – and was served alcohol just hours before the accident. Sources said that these two pubs and restaurants are under the radar for breaking the laws and serving liquor to minors.
All bill of Rs 48,000-bill was paid at Cosie, the first pub that the teen and his friends visited at 10.40 pm on Saturday, TOI reported quoting Pune police commissioner Amitesh Kumar.
The Maharashtra excise department on Tuesday sealed the two restaurants, where the 17-year-old accused was allegedly served liquor, on orders of the Pune district collectorate.
On the intervening night of Saturday and Sunday, the accused juvenile along with his friends went to the two establishments between 9.30 pm and 1 am and allegedly consumed liquor, according to police.
The Pune Police has so far arrested the father of a 17-year-old boy and four executives of restaurants for serving liquor to the minor.
In a shocking verdict, the Juvenile Justice Board granted the youngster bail on the same day while asking him to write an essay on road accidents. The decision has drawn criticism.
Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, who holds the home portfolio, expressed shock and surprise over the JJ Board (JJB) taking a “lenient view” of the fatal car accident and granting bail to the accused, and pushed for trying the teenager as an adult.
Meanwhile, following the public outrage following the incident, a special inspection drive has been started by the excise department to ensure pubs and license-holding restaurants do not serve liquor to underage patrons and operate beyond the 1.30 am deadline.
If any violations are found, cases would be registered against such establishments and their licences will be cancelled,” said a statement by the department.
The minor Porsche driver fatally knocked down two motorbike-borne IT engineers in Kalyani Nagar in the early hours of Sunday. The deceased were identified as Anish Awadhiya and Ashwini Koshta, both 24-year-old IT professionals hailing from Madhya Pradesh and working in Pune
