The Bombay High Court on June 25 directed that the minor boy allegedly involved in the Porsche car accident in Pune be released immediately as the orders remanding him to an observation home were illegal and the law regarding juveniles must be implemented fully.
The juvenile was in observation home following an outrage over his bail and he will now be under the care of his aunt as his parents and grandfather have also been arrested for an attempted cover-up.
The CCL (Child in Conflict with Law) shall be in the care and custody of the petitioner (paternal aunt), the court said, adding that he was also in trauma over the entire case.
