Porsche accident in Pune: AI tools will be used to create a simulated accident scenario and present it as evidence in court | News from Pune

A senior police official said, “We are thoroughly studying the CCTV footage, mobile phone call recordings and video clips that are presented as evidence in this case. Meanwhile, we have contacted some private companies that help investigating agencies recreate crime scenes using artificial intelligence (AI). We are asking them to create a simulated model of the entire accident scenario. We will provide them with information such as CCTV footage along the route, various photos of the crime scene, some video clips from the crime scene and other data related to the accident.”

The official added, “This reconstruction will also include the sequence of events leading to the incident. AI-based technologies facilitate pattern recognition, analysis of images, increase the accuracy of crime scene reconstruction and help in creating a simulated model of the crime. As per the procedure, a panchnama of this model will be prepared and submitted along with technical evidence. Our focus is to build a watertight case, laying great emphasis on the technical evidence.”

Probe still on Taware switching samples

On Monday, police had arrested two doctors from Sassoon – Dr Ajay Taware, former chief medical officer and current head of the forensic medicine department, and Dr Shrihari Halnor, a trauma doctor – and Atul Ghatkamble, a staff member of the hospital’s mortuary. They were accused of altering the sample taken from the minor in exchange for money. Investigations revealed that the sample had been disposed of in a dustbin of the hospital. After their arrest, police searched various premises of the accused and seized cash amounting to Rs 300,000 – Rs 250,000 from Dr Halnor and Rs 50,000 from Ghatkamble, which police said was their share in the crime.

“On Tuesday and Wednesday, the premises linked to Taware were further searched. We are working on the leads we received during these searches. He is not very forthcoming during his questioning and is hesitant on some important questions. We are still investigating the financial transactions, how much money he received or what was promised to him and by whom. Another important aspect is the blood sample with which they replaced the minor’s sample,” said an officer involved in the investigation. Police said on Tuesday that it was Taware’s idea to alter the sample to tamper with the blood alcohol concentration test and thwart the investigation.
