What is the whole matter?
On May 19, two software engineers, Anish Awadiya and Ashwini Koshta, were killed in a Porsche car accident in Pune, Maharashtra. The young man who was driving the car during this time was a minor. Allegedly the minor accused was in an intoxicated state and was driving a Porsche car at high speed. The juvenile accused was granted bail by the Juvenile Justice Board on the same day and ordered to keep him under the care of his parents and grandfather. Along with this, the court had also set a condition that the minor accused would have to write an essay of 300 words on road safety.
However, the police later filed an application before the board, seeking amendment in the bail order. After this, on May 22, the board had ordered the custody of the minor accused and sending him to a juvenile home.
