Kanpur Lamborghini crash: Tobacco tycoon's son named in FIR after outrage over lapses

This special report examines the luxury supercar crash in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, where a Lamborghini allegedly driven by Shivam Mishra rammed into pedestrians, injuring six people. Shivam Mishra, the son of tobacco tycoon KK Mishra and a director at Bansidhar Tobacco Ltd, reportedly claimed he 'suffered a seizure and lost control of the vehicle' during the incident. However, eyewitness accounts and video footage showing him exiting the car with bouncers have raised serious questions regarding accountability and potential VIP culture. The programme highlights significant lapses in the police investigation, including the initial omission of Mishra's name from the FIR and the failure to conduct a medical examination within the critical first 24 hours. Following intense media scrutiny, the police have now added his name to the case and seized the vehicle, which is estimated to cost between 10 to 12 crore rupees. The report explores the ongoing investigation and the public demand for transparency in the face of alleged police negligence.
