According to police sources, the deceased has been identified as Netan Carls Fernandez, a resident of the IC colony in Borivali West.
On August 22, he went to attend his friend's birthday party. Later, after coming back from the birthday party, Fernandez took his father's bike (without obtaining permission from his parents) and went to Borivali (East) along with a few other friends to eat maska pav and tea.
While returning back home, Fernandez's 18-year-old female friend was sitting as a pillion rider on the bike.
