Mumbai: The accident involving the Audi of BJP’s Maharashtra unit chief Chandrashekhar Bawankule’s son Sanket took a new turn on Wednesday with Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut alleging that food bills of ‘beef cutlets’ were found in the car.
Bawankule and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, who holds the Home portfolio, have come under fire because of the midnight road-rage accident in Nagpur.
“They went to a bar….the bill of the khana-pina (good and drinks) should be made public…there is a bill related to liquor…there are bills reflecting that they had ordered chicken, mutton and beef...beef cutlet,” Raut alleged.
“And they teach us about Hindutva and festivals…there is mob lynching…they prevent others from eating non-vegetarian food in the name of Shravan, Ganeshotsav and other festivals,” claimed Raut and claimed that the the bills were found by the police.
However, Nagpur Deputy Commissioner of Police (Zone II) Rahul Madane, who is heading the probe, denied the allegations and said there’s no mention of ‘beef’ in the bill.
In a related development, Shiv Sena (UBT) Deputy Leader Sushma Andhare visited the Sitabuldi Police Station in Nagpur seeking details of the Audi car accident.
Andhare asked the police station head why the car registration number was not mentioned in the FIR, to which the police said the complainant did not know it, but it was added later.
“Why the car was shunted to the garage for repairs while the probe is still pending, why the medical examination of all the persons present in the car was not carried out and why only two occupants including the driver have been arrested so far,” she said.
