The former home minister wrote on X: “In the Pune Porsche accident case, it has come to the fore that under political pressure, attempts were made to change the blood samples of the accused and prepare a report that the accused had not consumed alcohol. Now, as a former home minister, my information is that preparations have been made to show alcohol positive in the viscera report of the deceased. So, it can be proved in the court that the IT professionals on the motorcycle who died were drunk and it was due to them that the accident happened. So that the builder’s son can be released soon.”
