<p>As per reports, Agarwal currently has two pending cases - kidnapping and threatening the family driver, forcing him to take the blame on himself and 2) Manipulation of the blood sample.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The teen has been accused of running over two motorbike-borne 24-year-old IT professionals Aneesh Awadhiya and Ashwini Costa, in Kalyani Nagar, Pune in the early hours of May 19 with his&nbsp;Porsche car. The police claimed that he was driving under the influence of alcohol at that time, with an investigation currently underway.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The case turned out to be a matter of massive outrage when reports emerged that the accused got VIP treatment after he was arrested. Reports claimed that he was allowed to eat pizza at the police station and take a nap, and his medical test was allegedly delayed. He was allowed to walk out on bail with the condition of writing a 300-word essay and helping the traffic police.&nbsp;</p>

Pune Porsche case: Accused teenager's father, Vishal Agarwal, gets bail

<p>Pune Police Commissioner Amitesh Kumar on Friday (May 24) said that attempts were made to frame the family driver in order to protect the 17-year-old accused in a <a href="https://www.wionews.com/india-news/pune-porsche-crash-mother-of-teen-urges-police-protection-for-son-after-fake-rap-video-goes-viral-724887">horrific car crash</a> that killed two motorbike-borne people in the west Indian city.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The commissioner claimed that the family of the accused was trying to project that he was not at the wheel at the time of the accident.</p>

<p>According to the city police chief, an internal inquiry has indicated that there were lapses on the part of some policemen while registering the case and action will be taken against them.&nbsp;</p>

<p>During a press conference, he said, "It is true that at the start the driver had said that he was driving the car. We are investigating this part and also under whose pressure the driver made that statement we are investigating it. Effort was made to change the driver during that period. We are investigating this also."&nbsp;</p>

<p>"During our investigation, it has clearly emerged that the juvenile was driving the car and we have already collected all the necessary chronological evidence. For example, when the juvenile left the house, the entry on the security register shows that he left the house with the car," he told reporters.&nbsp;</p>

<p>He mentioned that the police already have the CCTV footage of the minor drinking liquor in the pub. "The point of saying this is that our case is not alone depending on the blood report, we have other evidence also," he said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The city police chief further noted that the minor accused was in his senses and it was not as if all of them were so drunk that they could not understand anything.</p>

<p>He said that they had "full knowledge" that because of their actions, the deadly accident happened.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Kumar's comments came a day after reports emerged that the accused and his father Vishal Agarwal, a real estate developer, said that it was their family driver who was driving the Porsche.</p>

<p>The report said that the driver had apparently admitted that he was behind the wheel and two friends of the accused can also back up the claims.&nbsp;</p>
