Police arrest labour contractor after he surrenders before court

1 2 3 SLUG: PORSCHE CRASH Pune: The city police crime branch on Thursday evening arrested the 47-year-old labour contractor — the father of one of the three minors present in the Porsche Taycan car during the accident in May in Kalyaninagar — after securing his custody from the Yerawada central prison to interrogate him in the case. Assistant commissioner of police (crime) Ganesh Ingale told TOI, "A police team took the suspect into custody from the prison on a production warrant issued by the special court and formally arrested him. He will be produced before the court for seeking custodial remand on Friday.

" The contractor is facing the charge of manipulating the blood sample for alcohol test of his minor son, accompanying the 17-year-old car driver — the only minor co-accused in the case. He surrendered before the court on Wednesday, a day after the Supreme Court upheld the Bombay High Court's order of October 23 dismissing his anticipatory bail plea..
