3. Questions Arise on the Involvement of a Local MLA
After the accident, MLA Sunil Tingre's early morning visit to the police station raised suspicions. He was believed to be close to the real estate tycoon father of the accused. Tingre denied influencing the investigation, and the Police Commissioner affirmed that the procedures followed were by the book.
