Shishir Hiray
Special Public Prosecutor (SPP) in the Porsche car crash case
“After that, the defence started using delaying tactics deliberately. In spite of this, the prosecution went on pressing for arguments on the draft charges.”

“When those arguments concluded, two of the accused in the case – those linked to the blood swapping of the minor co-passengers – filed an application seeking all the CCTV footage from Sassoon General Hospital from the time of the offence. Such a demand was made when even the prosecution had not relied on all the CCTV footage from Sassoon Hospital. The defence took time arguing for this, but still got the ruling against them.”
