Kerala High Court Grants Bail to Judge and Son in Fatal Luxury Car Crash Cases
The Kerala High Court granted anticipatory bail to an Additional District and Sessions Judge after his 17-year-old son was involved in a fatal Mercedes-Benz car accident in Kochi on October 25, which killed a 55-year-old street vendor. The judge was named an accused under the Motor Vehicles Act and Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita but cooperated with the investigation. Meanwhile, courts upheld bail for the minor and other accused in related luxury car crash cases, amid criticism of police procedures and expressions of grief from the victim's family, who plan to challenge the bail orders.
