Occupants of a Polo car that was hit chased down the Audi at T Point in Mankapur, apprehended Hawre and Ronit Chittwamwar, and handed them over to police. Hawre was arrested on Monday night and later released on bail at the police station.
“The CCTV footage of the time when they were at La Horee Bar (before the crash) is missing. We seized their DVR on Wednesday and have sent it for forensic analysis," the Sitabuldi police station official said.
The manager of La Horee had refused to hand over the CCTV footage and the electronic equipment to a probe team on Tuesday, he claimed. The bar management relented after it was threatened with legal action.
However, we realised there had been no footage since Sunday night. Further probe is underway, he added. Although Sanket was riding in the car, he was not at the wheel at the time of the accident, police had said earlier. As per police, he consumed liquor and some chicken and mutton dishes at the bar.
