According to the police, the teenager, before the accident, had allegedly consumed alcohol at the hotel. The boy was earlier granted bail on a surety of Rs 7,500 and an assurance from his grandfather to keep him away from bad company. However, following an outcry over his quick bail, the JJB on Wednesday remanded the boy to the observation home till June 5.
Meanwhile, the police questioned the juvenile's grandfather to establish the sequence of events leading up to the accident. According to his testimony, the teen informed his family on Wednesday night that he and his friends were celebrating their Class XII results. After discussing with his son, the grandfather handed over the car keys and a credit card for the party expenses.
The grandfather later told the police that he was unaware of the potential consequences of giving the car keys to his minor grandson. The family's driver later told the police that the teenager drove the Porsche from their Wadgaon Sheri bungalow to Cosie and later to the Blak Marriott pub. "The driver and another employee followed the Porsche in another vehicle. After partying at Blak Marriott, the driver retrieved the Porsche from the pub's valet," the police revealed.
According to the driver, the teenager insisted on driving the Porsche despite being drunk, Zende said. "The driver called the teen's father, who instructed him to let his son drive and to sit in the passenger seat. The driver complied, and the teenager drove with two friends in the back seats before the accident occurred," a police officer was quoted as saying by the Times of India.
