His friends have always given the same statement."
One of Siddarth's friends, requesting anonymity said, "I along with two other friends who were present at the party, gave the statement that the incident occurred due to the absence of lifeguards at the venue."
Even after repeated calls and messages, Jayant Pawar was unavailable for comment. When contacted his manager Ahmed for Pawar's whereabouts, he said he had no information on the same.u00a0
However, PI Devidas Patil, Mundhwa police station, confirmed that the case has been registered against the management. When asked why the case was not registered against the owner, Patil said, "The management and the absent lifeguard is responsible for the incident."
