According to a PTI report, Raut accused the police of filing a fraudulent report on the Pune luxury car accident and questioned who the Pune Police chief was protecting.
"The Pune police commissioner should be sacked. Who has he helped in this case? Two innocent persons lost their lives. The boy can be seen drinking in the pub. This is a corrupt police system and a corrupt MLA," he claimed without elaborating.
"Whom is the police commissioner trying to save? You are giving a false report," the Rajya Sabha member alleged, per PTI report.
The Pune luxury car accident included a Porsche driven by a 17-year-old who was reportedly drunk, colliding with two motorbike riders--Ashwini Koshta and Anis Awadhiya--in Pune's Kalyani Nagar district early Sunday morning, killing both.
The Juvenile Justice Board granted the boy bail in the Pune luxury car accident and told him to study traffic rules at the Regional Transport Office and produce his findings within 15 days, the PTI report stated.
According to Pune Police Commissioner Amitesh Kumar, the teenager's father has been jailed, and three hotel executives have been arrested for providing alcohol to minors.
The police have accused the teenager's father of violating sections 75 and 77 of the Juvenile Justice Act, as well as the pub owners and employees for providing alcohol to minors. The adolescent faces accusations under Section 304 of the Indian Penal Code and the Motor Vehicles Act.
According to the PTI report, the case has been transferred to the Pune crime branch.
The Pune police have approached the court to seek approval to try the adolescent as an adult in the Pune luxury car accident case, the news agency report stated.
