India’s Pune is back in the news for another hit-and-run case, with delivery boy Rauf Shaikh becoming&nbsp;the victim this time around. An Audi driver, identified as 34-year-old Ayush Tayal, reportedly hit the victim’s motorcycle on Friday past midnight. The driver also hit and injured three people before he rammed his car into the delivery executive’s bike.

Pune police said the incident took place at around 1:00 am (local time) near the Koregaon area. The accused was later arrested.

Police said the accused first hit a two-wheeler, injuring three people, and then hit another bike that Shaikh&nbsp;was riding. After the impact, the victim&nbsp;sustained severe injuries and was later declared dead by doctors when taken to hospital.

Meanwhile, Tayal fled from the area. Police tracked him down using the surveillance camera footage from the locality. He was later arrested from his residence in the city’s Hadapsar area.

“The car driven by Tayal crashed into Shaikh’s bike. The accused fled the scene but was later detained after police used footage of CCTV cameras to identify the car and then track him down with its details,” said Additional Commissioner of Police Manoj Pail.

Audi driver crushes Pune delivery boy to death in another hit-and-run case

The accused in the Pune Porsche car accident case that killed two IT professionals on May 19, a minor boy, has finally admitted he was in an inebriated state. However, the teen boy said he didn't remember the incidents completely. The accused is held at an observation home till June 5 as the investigation continues.

His parents, Shivani Agarwal and Vishal Agarwal, were produced in the court on Sunday where the investigation officer informed the court that the parents of the 17-year-old accused had tried to shield the child and the blood samples of the mother were taken instead of the accused. This has been revealed and confirmed by the report submitted by the Regional forensic science laboratory of Maharashtra state. The duo has been remanded in police custody till June 5.

“We have recorded the statement of the woman (49). She told us that the doctors of the hospital had told her to give her blood as sample instead of her son’s. She feigned ignorance on why the doctors told her so," a Times of India report quoted Pune commissioner of police (CP) Amitesh Kumar as saying.

On 19 May, the 17-year-old drunk boy killed two IT professionals after crashing his Porsche car in the Kalyani Nagar area of Pune when the duo was travelling on a motorbike. The boy didn't have a valid license. Police have registered three separate FIRs in connection with the case – one regarding the accident, the second one against the bar for serving liquor to the minor, and the third one for the wrongful confinement of the accused's kin on the family driver to take the blame for the accident.

The names of some top Maharashtra politicians have also surfaced in the media in relation to the case. The state's deputy CM Ajit Pawar is constantly defending the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) MLA from Vadgaon Sheri, Sunil Tingre.

"Did Sunil Tingre try to suppress the matter? The allegations against him are baseless," Ajit Pawar was quoted as saying in media reports.

Pune car accident case: Teen’s mother blames doctors, minor admits he was drunk

The doctor accused of manipulating the accused teen's blood samples in Pune's Porche car crash case has now been sacked. India Today reported that Dr Shrihari Halnor, the chief medical officer, was sacked Wednesday (May 29) by the state-run Sassoon General Hospital. Shrihari allegedly replaced the teen's blood samples with another person's samples to show that the accused was not drunk at the time of the accident that killed two IT professionals.

Apart from that, the Maharashtra government has also vowed to take action against Dr Ajay Taware, the head of the hospital's medicine department and a staffer Atul Ghatkamble. Taware and Ghatkamble are likely to be suspended after the inquiry committee's preliminary report. All three doctors are currently under detention.

<h2>Role of local MLA in question</h2>

Local state lawmaker Sunil Tingre's name has also been linked with the car crash case from day one. And now, it has been confirmed that Vishal Agarwal, the father of the accused teen, tried calling the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) MLA more than 45 times. Some reports even hint at possible links between the MLA and Dr Ajay Taware.&nbsp;

He confirmed on May 20, a day after the accident, that he was present at the local police station till 6 am. Tingre later claimed he didn't try to put pressure on police but his party NCP has asked for an explanation.

As of now, Maharashtra Police are denying any connection between Sunil Tingre and Dr Ajay Taware.

<h2>Juvenile Justice Board under scanner</h2>

Not just the doctors, but the role of the Juvenile Justice Board (JJ Board) members, who granted bail to the teen within 24 hours, is also under scanner. Maharashtra's women and child development department has now established a five-person committee to investigate whether the members followed legal procedures.
