Meanwhile, the Juvenile Justice Board on Wednesday issued a notice to a 17-year-old boy, summoning him to appear before it on Wednesday, after Pune police’s petition to review the boy’s bail order. The board is scheduled to convene at around 12 noon at its office in the Yerawada area.

Previously, the Pune police had contested the bail order in a sessions court, urging for the boy to be treated as saying the crime committed was “heinous”.However, the court directed the police to seek a review of the order from the Juvenile Justice Board.

Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, overseeing the home portfolio, emphasised on Tuesday that there have been no indications of police negligence in their handling of the car crash case. He vehemently denied any allegations of pressure on the investigating officers.
