A video has gone viral on social media with the claim that the 17-year-old boy involved in Pune's Porsche crash case which killed 2 people uploaded a rap video on the day he got bail. The video drew intense criticism and condemnation from netizens. However, Pune Police confirmed to FPJ that the boy seen in the video ridiculing the accident and abusing is not the minor boy involved in the accident.
In the video, the Instagram user sings, "Karke baitha main nashe in my Porsche, saamne aaya couple mere ab woh hai neeche, sound so cliche, sorry gaadi chad gayi aap pe. 17 ki umar paise khub mere baap pe, 1 din mein mil gayi mujhe bail, phir se dikhaunga sadak pe khel." The provoking lyrics and making fun of an accident that resulted in the death of two people angered netizens to no end.
However, it later came to light that the video is the work of a person who goes by the Instagram handle 'Cringistaan2'. ACP Sunil Tambe, Crime Branch, Zone 1, said that the video making rounds on social media with the claim that the minor boy involved in the Porsche accident is fake. "It is going viral on social media platforms. We are doing technical analysis and investigating the matter," he added.
Several handles posted about the fake video making rounds on X.
The insensitivity does not end there. Another screenshot was shared by the Instagram user in which he is seen trying to ridicule the incident.
