Authorities in Maharashtra's Satara district tore down unauthorized buildings at a resort in Mahabaleshwar, which belongs to the family of the 17-year-old juvenile linked to the Pune Porsche accident.

As reported by PTI, district officials bulldozed unauthorized constructions in MPG Club owned by the family in the Malkam Peth area of Mahabaleshwar, the official said.

Two IT professionals from Madhya Pradesh lost their lives when a Porsche, reportedly driven by a juvenile under the influence of alcohol, collided with their two-wheeler in Pune's Kalyani Nagar area on May 19.

The incident gained widespread attention as attempts were made to shield the juvenile from legal consequences, leading to the arrest of several individuals, including his father and grandfather.

The administration's use of bulldozers follows Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's directive to Satara Collector Jitendra Dudi to take action against the resort if it was determined to be operating illegally.

“The administration had sealed the establishment last week,” the official said.
