How The Juvenile Got Bail in 15 Hours 

A juvenile court has granted bail to a teen within 15 hours of the incident, imposing several conditions. The court instructed the teen to study traffic rules and work with the Traffic Police for 15 days. Additionally, he must write a 300-word essay on the societal impact of road accidents and potential solutions. 

The court noted that the crime was not severe enough to warrant denying bail to the juvenile, who is reportedly connected to VVIPs.

Furthermore, the court-mandated the teen to undergo a psychiatric evaluation and seek rehabilitation at a de-addiction centre. He is also required to make a presentation on traffic rules before the Juvenile Justice Board. The court emphasized that he should assist road accident victims in the future.  

Case to be Registered Against Father, Bar

Meanwhile, an official part of the probing team said that cases will be registered against the father of a teen, who was driving a luxury car when it got involved in a fatal Porsche car accident in Pune, and the bar that "served the boy liquor". The 17-year-old Porsche car driver was detained after a case was registered against him. He was produced in a juvenile court which granted him bail only in 15 hours. 

“In the accident case, the father of the accused and the bar which served liquor to the juvenile/accused are being proceeded against under sections 75 and 77 of the Juvenile Justice Act,” Pune City Commissioner of Police Amitesh Kumar said in a statement.

As per section 75 of the Juvenile Justice Act, a person with actual control or charge of a child can be punished if he assaults, abandons or neglects the child wilfully, and abuses him, causing mental or physical illness. Section 77 pertains to giving liquor or drugs to a child.
