After a massive public outcry over the Pune Porsche accident, a video of a boy claimed to be the 17-year-old, who was allegedly involved in the killing of two people after his speeding luxury car rammed into them, singing a rap song based on the accident is going viral on social media. However, a media fact check has discovered that the boy in the video was not the Pune crash accused but an Instagram influencer based out of Delhi.
In fact, the mother of the 17-year-old boy has also appealed to the police to “protect” her son after the alleged video of him boasting about how he got away with the accident, went viral.
In a video message, the teen’s mother stressed that the clip had nothing to do with her son and that it was fake.
“The video which is being circulated is not of my son. That is a fake video. My son is in the detention centre,” says the teen’s mother in her message.
Appealing to the police to “protect” her son, the mother breaks down, and shows her video message. Unable to gather herself, she then walks away from the camera.
The luxury car crash incident from Pune which claimed the lives of two youngsters have taken the nation by shock.
The teenager, who is the son of a prominent real estate developer from the city, Vishal Agarwal, was initially granted bail after being asked to write an essay on road safety. However, the Juvenile Justice Board, later revoked the bail and sent the minor to its Yerawada home until June 5.
In the recent video that has gone viral on social media, the same teen was spotted bragging about driving under the influence of alcohol and killing people, in his rap song.
While sharing the video, an X user wrote, “Shocking but true, the psychopath kill*er in the Pune Porsche case made a rap song about the accident after getting bail, mocking the deaths of the innocent victims. How can someone be so insensitive?” Its archive can be seen here.
However, a recent fact check conducted by India Today found that the guy in the video was not the teenager from Pune but actually a Delhi-based Instagram influencer named Aryan.
Meanwhile, several Marathi news channels and websites also claimed that this video showed the Pune teen, who has now been accused of killing two people while driving in an inebriated condition.
