<p>The Pune police have written to the <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/news/india-news/article/pune-car-crash-maharashtra-wcd-to-organise-sensitisation-workshops-for-jjb-members-23352065" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Juvenile Justice Board</a> seeking permission to probe the minor allegedly involved in the Porsche crash that left two techies dead, a police officer said on Friday.</p>
<p>The police claim the 17-year-old was driving the luxury car in an inebriated state when it met with the accident in the Kalyani Nagar area on May 19. He is in an observation home till June 5.</p>
<p>&ldquo;We have written to the JJ Board and sought their permission to allow us to <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-news/article/pune-car-crash-retired-official-urges-mhrc-to-transfer-pune-police-chief-over-corruption-23352034" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">probe the minor</a>,&rdquo; said Shailesh Balkawade, additional commissioner of police (crime).</p>
<p>The JJB granted bail to the teenager, son of builder Vishal Agarwal, a few hours after the crash and asked him to write a 300-word essay on road safety. Amid heavy criticism, the police again approached the JJB, which modified the order and sent him to an observation home till June 5. The minor&rsquo;s father and grandfather have been arrested for allegedly wrongfully confining their family driver, luring him with cash and gifts and later threatening him to take the blame for the crash.</p>
<p>The police have also arrested two doctors and a staffer from <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-news/article/pune-car-crash-maharashtra-minister-hasan-mushrif-promises-reforms-in-civil-hospitals-23352032" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Sassoon General Hospital</a> for allegedly manipulating the teenager&rsquo;s blood samples to show that he was not drunk at the time of the accident.</p>
