Mumbai's Worli police have taken a high-speed Lamborghini into custody following the circulation of a shocking social media video. The clip, which went viral recently, allegedly shows the luxury sports car being driven at speeds exceeding 200 kilometers per hour on the busy Bandra-Worli Sea Link, a blatant violation of the 80 km/h speed limit enforced on the bridge.
Details of the High-Speed Chase Captured on Video
The now-viral video footage presents a alarming scene of the bright orange Lamborghini weaving dangerously through traffic on the iconic sea link. The supercar is seen overtaking multiple vehicles at an extremely high rate of speed, demonstrating a clear disregard for public safety. The video is timestamped for August, prompting immediate police action.
Senior Police Inspector Arvind Patil confirmed the seizure and provided crucial details about the vehicle's ownership. The car bears a Haryana registration number plate and was physically brought to Mumbai from Pune on Sunday for a thorough examination. Police are currently analyzing the vehicle's data and the video to determine the exact speed at which it was driven during the incident.
Ownership Trail and Legal Action Initiated
Investigations have traced the ownership of the seized Lamborghini. According to police, the vehicle originally belonged to Nirav Patel, a resident of Ahmedabad. Patel had subsequently given the car to a dealer, identified as Faiz Adanwala, for the purpose of selling it. The authorities are now meticulously verifying the documents of both the owner and the car dealer as part of their probe.
A formal case has been registered against the unidentified driver who was behind the wheel during the reckless drive. The police are working to identify the individual responsible for the dangerous stunt that endangered countless lives on one of Mumbai's most critical infrastructural arteries.
Consequences and Ongoing Investigation
The custody of the Lamborghini marks a significant step by the Mumbai police to crack down on dangerous driving and enforce traffic laws, even for high-profile vehicles. This incident highlights the severe risks associated with speeding, especially on a structure like the Bandra-Worli Sea Link, where high winds and heavy traffic demand strict adherence to speed limits.
The Worli police station's action sends a strong message against traffic violations by affluent individuals. The investigation remains active, with officials focused on building a solid case using digital evidence and technical examination of the impounded supercar to ensure appropriate legal consequences are delivered.
