Aviation spare firmowner's second bail plea rejected for blood sample swap Pune's Porsche crash case
1 2 3 Pune: Additional sessions judge KP Kshirsagar rejected the second bail plea of an aviation spare parts company owner arrested in the Porsche Taycan car crash case on charges of manipulating the blood alcohol test of his minor son, who was accompanying the 17-year-old car driver at the time of the accident. Pune police had arrested the accused on Aug 19, 2024. A supplementary chargesheet was filed against him and he is under judicial custody at the Yerawada Central Prison. Kshirsagar said in his order on May 23, "Prima facie, there appears no material change either in the facts or law after the rejection of the first bail application of the applicant/accused. There appears no substance in the new grounds taken by the accused for bail. There is no material on record to doubt the genuineness of the prosecution case. There appear no inherent infirmities or improbability in the prosecution case. " "From the appreciation of the material on record, it appears that the allegations against the accused are very serious, involving hatching a conspiracy for causing the disappearance of evidence of the commission of an offence with the intention of screening the offender and forgery for the purpose of interfering and misleading the investigation of the crime and thwarting the criminal justice administration system," the judge said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Artrose?

There is reasonable belief that the accused may tamper with the prosecution evidence if left at liberty. Therefore, at this stage, there appears to be a necessity for further detention of the accused." Special public prosecutor Shishir Hiray pleaded to reject the bail plea of the accused because there is prima facie evidence against him to show that he gave his blood sample instead of his son. It was clear that he, along with the co-accused, hatched a conspiracy and tried to interfere and thwart the investigation and criminal justice administration system.

Porsche case: Bail denied to labour contractor, jeweller charged with manipulation of blood test
Pune: Special judge KP Kshirsagar on Thursday rejected the bail pleas of a labour contractor and his jeweller friend arrested on the charge of manipulating blood test of the contractor's minor son, who was accompanying the 17-year-old driver of the Porsche Taycan car that killed two software engineers on May 19, 2024, in an accident in Kalyaninagar. Police's case is that the contractor got his friend to give blood sample that was swapped with the minor's blood sample."There is prima facie nexus between the (bail) applicants and other co-accused in hatching a conspiracy to swap blood samples and prepare fabricated documents to mislead the investigation and criminal administration system," the judge said in separate orders rejecting the bail pleas. "From prima facie appreciation of the material on record, there appeared reasonable grounds to believe that the two accused were guilty of the offence punishable with life imprisonment. There is no material on record to doubt the genuineness of the prosecution's case, and there are no inherent infirmities or improbabilities in its case," the judge said. On the duo's claim that they were entitled to bail on the grounds of parity with the 17-year-old car driver's mother, who was granted ad interim bail by the Supreme Court on April 22, the special judge said the two were not entitled to such relief as they were not women. Also, there was evidence to show that the arrest of the two accused was legal and the police complied with the relevant arrest provisions, the court said. The court pronounced the orders in the presence of the lawyers and police officials and communicated the same to the accused through videoconferencing, extending their judicial custody along with seven others lodged at Yerawada Central Prison till May 13. The orders stated that the allegations against the accused were very serious, involving hatching a conspiracy for causing the disappearance of evidence of the commission of an offence with the intention of screening the offender and forgery for the purpose of interfering and misleading the investigation of the crime, thwarting the criminal justice judge said the accused and co-accused were alleged to have tampered with the evidence at the investigation stage and tried to mislead the investigation. Some prosecution witnesses are employees of the accused, and there is a possibility that after their release, they may tamper with the evidence or influence the witnesses, which cannot be ruled out at this stage, the court said. At this stage, there appears to be a necessity for the further detention of the accused, the judge said.

Judge confirms anticipatory bail for Pune Cantonment Court officer in bogus surety case
Pune: Additional sessions judge K P Kshirsagar confirmed the anticipatory bail granted to Pune Cantonment Court 's assistant superintendent Vasim Manjurlal Shaikh in the bogus surety case . Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Since the case relied on documentary evidence, Shaikh's custodial questioning was not necessary, the judge said. After being listed as a wanted accused in Wanowrie police's remand report on Feb 5, Shaikh obtained ad interim anticipatory bail from the sessions court. In the eight-page order dated April 28, judge Kshirsagar stipulated that the applicant (Shaikh) should be released upon furnishing a personal bond of Rs50,000 with one or more sureties of an equal amount. The order also required him to cooperate with the investigating officer for questioning and cautioned against interfering with the investigation or trial. Shaikh, through his lawyer, argued that his name was not mentioned in the FIR registered with Wanowrie police, and he had no knowledge that the documents given to him for verification were forged. He pleaded to confirm the ad interim anticipatory bail granted to him because there was no evidence to suggest a nexus between him and the co-accused. The state prosecution prayed to reject Shaikh's bail because he was involved in a serious crime, and being a public servant, he was under obligation to prevent the crime. The court, in its bail order, said that Shaikh prima facie did not appear to have intentional involvement, and the investigating officer admitted that he cooperated with them. The court granted pre-arrest bail to Shaikh. Regarding the case progress, Wanowrie police's sub inspector Dhanaji Tone, who is investigating the matter, said on Saturday that they submitted a chargesheet against 15 accused, including seven lawyers, before a magisterial court at Wanowrie. Eleven accused are currently under judicial custody in Yerawada Central Prison since their arrest. A court officer and four advocates have secured anticipatory bail from the sessions court and the Bombay high court.
