Recently surfaced CCTV footage shows the 17-year-old boy who hit two people with his Porsche in Pune, drinking at a restaurant before driving his EV at a great speed.
One of the videos shows the minor boy, son of a Pune-based real estate developer – Vishal Agarwal, purportedly consuming alcohol with his friends before getting into his vehicle.
After leaving the bar, the boy sped his Porsche, which was being driven without a number plate, and knocked down Aneesh Awadhiya and Ashwini Koshta, both 24-year-old techies from Madhya Pradesh working in Pune, in Kalyaninagar around 3:15 am on Sunday.
Aneesh and his friend Ashwini were returning from a dinner party.
The CCTV footage from the accident spot, which too has gone viral, shows the EV, hurtling towards the bike-borne youths on a slightly busy road at immense speed.
Boy visited 2 restaurants with friends, was served vodka, whiskey, beer
During the investigation into the Pune Porsche accident case, the police found the boy, on Saturday evening, had visited two restaurants with a group of about 10-12 friends. They were served alcohol, namely vodka, whiskey, and beer along with food at both the restaurants.
The owners and managers of both establishments have been booked for serving liquor to minors.
The Pune police had on Monday confirmed that the boy, driving the Porsche when it hit a motorcycle killing two people, had consumed alcohol hours before the accident took place, and seems to have been under the influence of alcohol at the time of the incident.
Pune Police Commissioner Amitesh Kumar said during the initial probe, the minor accused had told them his father was aware that we would be consuming alcohol that evening.

There was also anger among people over reports of the juvenile being fed pizza, burger and biryani at the police station during his detention.
