Porsche accident case: social media outrage leads to bail being canceled, accused likely to be treated as an ‘adult’

The recent case of a Porsche accident involving a minor that tragically killed two people in Pune took a dramatic turn following a wave of outrage on social media. The 17-year-old driver was initially released on bail within 15 hours Juvenile Justice Council (JJB), faced flexible bail conditions that sparked widespread public anger. His bail conditions, which included writing a reflective essay and cooperating with traffic police, were considered too flexible given the seriousness of the charges.
In response to this reaction, the Pune Juvenile Justice Commission revoked the juvenile’s bail and ordered him to be placed in an observation home. Additionally, the commission is currently considering whether to try the teenager as an adult, which could result in a harsher sentence if convicted.
The father of the minor involved in the luxury vehicle accident was placed in police custody until May 24. The Juvenile Justice Commission also issued a notice to the 17-year-old, asking him to appear before the court on Wednesday.

Two teenage IT specialists, Ashwini Koshta and Aneesh Awadhia, both from Madhya Pradesh, died in a tragic accident. The police also asked for the arrest of a bar employee who served alcohol to the accused teenager and his friend.
Pune Police Commissioner Amitesh Kumar provided an update on the case, stating, “We have filed a review petition with the Juvenile Justice Commission, demanding that the accused be tried as an adult and sent to a correctional facility home detention“
He added: “The operative order was passed to us by the Juvenile Justice Commission and the accused was sent to remand for 14 days till June 5. Orders regarding his trial as an adult will be made in due course.” With inputs from ANI.
