A recent incident involving a Mercedes SUV has sparked outrage and protests in Mumbai and Goa, India. The incident took place near the Banastari bridge in Goa and resulted in the deaths of three individuals and injuries to several others. The deceased have been identified as Suresh Fadte, Bhavna Fadte, and Arup Karmakar.

The accused, Shripad alias Paresh Sinai Sawardekar, a 45-year-old businessman, was taken into custody by the police following the accident. He was found to be intoxicated at the time of the crash. Sawardekar has been charged under various sections of the Indian Penal Code and the Motor Vehicles Act for rash driving, drunk driving, and culpable homicide.

The court has denied the bail application filed by Sawardekar, citing his intoxicated state and the need for a thorough investigation. The incident has sparked public outrage and protests, particularly in Divar, where the deceased couple was from. Locals are accusing the police of protecting the car owner, Meghana Sawardekar, alleging that she was driving the car at the time of the accident.

Protesters are demanding a fair and transparent investigation and calling for timely justice. They want all responsible parties to be held accountable for their actions. The injured victims are receiving medical treatment at the Goa Medical College and Hospital, with one individual requiring surgery for neck injuries.

The public is closely following the investigation and hopes for a just resolution to prevent similar incidents in the future.
