Teen Driver’s Blood Sample Discarded in Pune Porsche Crash: Police Arrest Two Doctors

On Monday, Pune Police Commissioner Amitesh Kumar asserted that blood samples from a teenage driver who is facing charges in connection with a Porsche accident in Pune had been taken by medical professionals at Sassoon General Hospital. These samples were then exchanged for those of an individual who had not had alcohol before being disposed of in a trash can.

Amitesh Kumar added that Dr. Shrihari Harnor, the chief medical officer at Sassoon Hospital in Pune, and Dr. Ajay Taware, the director of the forensics department, had been arrested for allegedly falsifying blood results and tampering with the evidence in the Porsche crash case.

“On May 19, at approximately 11 a.m., a blood sample obtained from Sassoon Hospital in Pune was disposed of in the hospital’s trash can, and a different individual’s blood sample was obtained and forwarded to the forensic laboratory. This blood sample was substituted by CMO Srihari Harnor. Amitesh Kumar stated at a news conference that “we discovered during the investigation that Srihari Harnor replaced this on the orders of the HOD forensic medicine department of Sassoon, Ajay Tawre.”

The crime branch is presently looking into the case.

Early on May 19, two IT experts perished when a Porsche driven by a minor struck their motorcycle as it was traveling at a high speed. According to the authorities, the adolescent was intoxicated when the collision occurred. The Juvenile Justice Board first gave the youngster bail and ordered him to write an essay about traffic accidents. However, after protesting the police’s review application and receiving backlash, the youth was placed in an observation home until June 5.

In relation to the accident, the teenager’s grandfather and his realtor father have been taken into custody by the police.
