Reacting to the Supreme Court granting bail to three accused in the 2024 high-profile Porsche hit-and-run case in Pune, the family members of Anish Awadhiya, one of the two engineers killed in the incident, called for the cancellation of their bail.

Anish’s family lives in Birsinghpur Pali town of Madhya Pradesh’s Umaria district.

Speaking to some media persons on Tuesday, Anish’s father Omprakash Awadhiya said, “We want their bail to be cancelled so that we get justice.”

He alleged that the three accused, who were granted bail, had tampered with blood samples to shield the main accused.

The Supreme Court on Monday granted bail to Aditya Sood, Ashish Mittal, and Santosh Gaikwad, accused of aiding the tampering of blood samples after the accident, noting that they had already spent 18 months in jail.

According to information, Mittal is a friend of the main accused’s father, Sood is the father of the boy who was seated on the rear seat of the car, and Gaikwad is a middleman who allegedly took Rs 3 lakh to manipulate the blood report.

The Bombay High Court had denied them bail in December last year.

Twenty-four-year-old software engineers Anish Awadhiya and Ashwini Koshta were killed in an accident in Pune’s Kalyani Nagar on May 19, 2024. Awadhiya was a resident of Birsinghpur Pali in Umaria district, while Koshta hailed from Jabalpur, both in MP.
