Underworld links to Pune Porsche crash: Teen’s grandfather had connections with Chhota Rajan

Fresh details have surfaced regarding the tragic Pune Porsche accident, shedding light on a complex web of connections and criminal activities. At the heart of this revelation is the minor driver’s grandfather, Surendra Kumar Agarwal, whose ties to underworld figure Chhota Rajan have now been brought to public attention.

Reports indicate that Surendra Kumar Agarwal had a longstanding association with Chhota Rajan, maintaining direct contact with the notorious underworld don. This connection appears to have granted the Agarwal family a degree of favouritism from local police in the past. It’s been suggested that this preferential treatment stemmed from Agarwal’s influence within certain circles, potentially due to his connections with Chhota Rajan.

The roots of this association delve into a familial dispute between Surendra Kumar Agarwal and his brother, Ram Agarwal, revolving around financial matters. Allegedly, this disagreement escalated to the point where Surendra Kumar Agarwal solicited Chhota Rajan’s help in a drastic manner. It’s claimed that he sought the elimination of Ajay Bhosle, an associate of his brother Ram Agarwal, a request that Chhota Rajan’s operatives swiftly acted upon by opening fire on Bhosle.

This grim turn of events prompted the Police to take action, resulting in the registration of a case under the stringent Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) against Chhota Rajan and his cohorts. Rajan’s associates were apprehended in connection with the case, which was filed at the Band Garden Police Station.

However, it is notable that Surendra Kumar Agarwal himself was not charged under MCOCA, instead facing accusations under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).

Meanwhile, in response to the tragic accident involving the minor driver, the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) took decisive action by demolishing two bars suspected of serving alcohol to underage individuals. This incident, which claimed the lives of two individuals, Ashwini Koshta and Anis Awadhiya, has sparked outrage and raised questions about the responsibility of establishments serving alcohol to minors.

Further complicating matters, the father of the accused minor, Vishal Agarwal, found himself embroiled in controversy as he was escorted to court.

Activists from the Vande Mataram Sanghatana expressed their anger by throwing ink on the police van transporting him, highlighting the intensity of public sentiment surrounding the case.

The accident itself, which occurred in the early hours of May 19, resulted in the tragic loss of life and has since cast a shadow over the entire community. The accused, a 17-year-old allegedly driving a Porsche, now faces serious legal repercussions. Despite being granted bail by the Juvenile Justice Board, questions linger regarding the influence of his family’s connections and the extent of their involvement in criminal activities.

Amidst these developments, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has taken a keen interest in the case, particularly focusing on Surendra Kumar Agarwal’s alleged involvement in organised crime. It’s been revealed that Agarwal’s connection to Chhota Rajan extends to a property dispute with his brother, RK Agarwal, which reportedly escalated into collaboration with Rajan’s criminal network.

Despite the gravity of the situation and the involvement of organised crime elements, the Pune police’s handling of the case has raised eyebrows. The decision not to invoke MCOCA, despite clear indications of organised criminal activity, has prompted allegations of intentional oversight and misconduct during the initial investigation.

As the legal proceedings unfold, Surendra Kumar Agarwal finds himself navigating a complex web of charges, including criminal conspiracy and attempted murder, all under the scrutiny of the judicial system. With the trial ongoing and evidence being presented, the full extent of Agarwal’s involvement and the ramifications of his connections with Chhota Rajan remains to be seen.
