On May 19, two 24-year-old software engineers were killed when a speeding limousine hit their motorcycle in Pune.
A man and a woman, both 24 years old and IT professionals, were killed in Pune in the early hours of May 19 when a Porsche allegedly driven by a minor rammed into their motorcycle .
The blood samples of not only the 17-year-old minor involved in the Porsche crash in Kalyani Nagar but also the two friends who accompanied him were also changed at the government-run Sassoon Hospital to ascertain that they were not drunk, the prosecution said. Four said.
The court is hearing the bail applications of the six accused in this case, namely the parents of the minor, Vishal Agarwal and Shivani Agarwal; Dr. Ajay Taware and Dr. Shreehari Halnor of Sassoon Hospital , as well as alleged middlemen Ashpak Makandar and Amar Gaikwad.
The minor driver himself has been released from the observation post following a High Court order.
Special prosecutor Shishir Hiray continued to oppose the bail request, saying Dr. Harnow replaced the sample of the 17-year-old who was driving the car despite knowing the consequences and having in-depth knowledge of forensic and forensic aspects, and Photo of two of his friends, hours after the accident.
The prosecutor told Justice UM Mudholkar that he did so on the instructions of Mr. and Mrs. Agarwal and Dr. Taware and received Rs 2.5 lakh for the same.
In the early hours of May 19, a Porsche driven by the Agarwal couple's son, a man and a woman, both 24 years old, IT professionals, allegedly crashed into their motorcycle.
The prosecutor quoted a statement from a trainee (resident) doctor who said she was asked to collect blood samples from Shivani Agarwal. According to police, the minor's blood sample was replaced with a blood sample from his mother.
In the case of his two friends, the plan was to use blood samples from their respective mothers as surrogates in the same manner, prosecutors quoted another resident as saying.
But this was impossible because in one case the son and mother had different blood types, while another boy's mother said she drank 30ml of alcohol herself. As a result, samples from two other men were exchanged for blood samples from the two boys, prosecutors told the court.
Prosecutors said trainee doctors were instructed to use dry cotton rather than cotton soaked in ethanol (alcohol) to avoid possible alcohol contamination.
Dr. Harno said he did not ask any of his subordinates to prepare the notes but made them himself.
The prosecutor also cited the testimony of another resident doctor to whom Dr Harno allegedly handed over Rs 2.5 lakh in cash that he had received.
“On May 23, Dr. Halnor came to his dormitory at Beijing Medical College and told him that he had received some money through Dr. Taware. Since there was no cabinet in his dormitory room, he asked him to put the money in the cabinet. As a friend Asked what he had received the money for, Dr. Harno said he would explain later and that he had done nothing wrong,” said advocate Hailey.
According to witnesses at the accident scene, a mob gathered after the accident and dragged the underage driver out of the car. Prosecutors said the minor could not even stand properly at this point, indicating he was severely intoxicated.
But he noted that just hours later, a preliminary medical report prepared by Dr. Harnow gave negative results on the amount of alcohol consumed.
Hiray, assisted by lawyer Sarthi Pansare, will continue his arguments on Monday.
