Kanpur Lamborghini crash: Tobacco baron KK Mishra's son Shivam Mishra arrested 4 days after VIP Road rampage

KANPUR: Tobacco baron K K Mishra’s son Shivam Mishra was arrested on Thursday in connection with the Lamborghini crash on Kanpur’s VIP Road four days after the incident then the speeding sports car rammed into pedestrians, triggering widespread outrage.The arrest comes a day after the additional chief judicial magistrate (VII), Kanpur Nagar, Amit Singh, dismissed the surrender application filed by Shivam Mishra’s driver, Mohan Lal, holding that Shivam was the accused as per the police investigation.While rejecting the driver’s plea on Wednesday, the court had noted that Mohan Lal was not named in the FIR nor did his name emerge during the investigation. “The applicant was neither named in FIR, nor his name cropped up in the police investigation. Therefore, his application has no merit and is liable to be dismissed,” the magistrate said.Two applications had been filed before the court on Tuesday — one by the driver seeking judicial custody and another by the car owner seeking the release of the Lamborghini, valued at over Rs 10 crore.Both were opposed by the prosecution.Public prosecutor Mishra submitted that the FIR alleged the car caused injuries and that evidence pointed to Shivam Mishra being behind the wheel at the time of the crash. He further urged the court to direct Shivam to cooperate with the investigation, alleging that he was not cooperating with the technical examination of the high-end vehicle.While refusing to release the Lamborghini, the court had directed Shivam Mishra to cooperate fully with the probe and provide all necessary documents to facilitate the technical examination of the vehicle. The court observed that the release application would be considered only after the technical examination report was submitted.The ACJM also directed the police to complete the technical examination of the car and submit the report before the court on Friday.Earlier, Shivam Mishra’s lawyer Narendra Kumar Yadav had claimed that the injured party, Mohd Tausif, had settled the matter with the driver and had identified Mohan as the person driving the vehicle. He added that Tausif did not wish to pursue the case further.K K Mishra, owner of Banshidhar Exports Pvt Ltd, also maintained that his son was not driving the Lamborghini. “My son was not driving. He was asleep. Our driver Mohan was driving the car,” he told mediapersons outside Gwaltoli police station.Shivam Mishra’s counsel, Mrityunjay Kumar, had earlier echoed the same version before reporters.
