Pune Porsche crash: 2 arrested for tampering with blood samples in criminal case

PTC News Desk: The Crime Branch of Pune Police has arrested two additional individuals in connection with the Porsche car crash case, bringing the total number of arrests to nine. The two suspects were apprehended late Monday night for allegedly swapping the blood samples of the minor accused’s friends involved in the accident.

According to the police investigation, the blood samples of the accused’s friends, both minors who were present in the car during the crash, were switched with samples from two other individuals at Sassoon Hospital, a state-run facility. One of the swapped samples belonged to the father of one of the minors, as revealed by Commissioner of Police Amitesh Kumar.

The probe further uncovered that the blood sample of the accused, who was brought to Sassoon Hospital for a medical examination following the accident, was replaced with his mother’s sample. This tampering with evidence is now a critical part of the ongoing investigation.
