In a recent development in the Porsche accident case involving a minor, an application has been filed in court to frame charges against nine individuals accused of tampering with evidence. The charges include altering blood samples to protect the accused minor.
The application was submitted on Monday and seeks formal charges and the start of trial proceedings. Special Public Prosecutor Shishir Hire presented the application in front of Special Judge UM Mudholkar.
The accused individuals include builder Vishal Surendrakumar Agarwal, the father of the minor, his wife Shivani Vishal Agarwal, Dr. Ajay Taware from the Forensic Department at Sassoon Hospital, Dr. Shreehari Halnor from the Emergency Department, ward boy Atul Ghatakamble, Ashpak Makandar who facilitated financial transactions, Amar Gaikwad, Aditya Avinash Sood who allegedly replaced the minor’s blood sample with his own, and Ashish Satish Mittal.
Another individual, Arun Kumar Devnath Singh, who allegedly directed Ashish Mittal to donate blood, has not yet been named in the charge sheet. Once charges are filed against Singh, a joint trial will be conducted for all accused.
The police have also filed an application to declare the minor involved in the accident as an adult to bring criminal charges against him. This application, along with others related to the seizure of the Porsche car and the minor’s passport, is scheduled to be heard on 31st January 2025.
This high-profile case has attracted significant public and legal attention due to accusations of evidence tampering and attempts to shield the minor. The upcoming hearings are expected to shed more light on the proceedings.
