In a surprising turn of events, the bail granted to the accused in the horrific Pune Porsche car accident has been cancelled due to widespread social media outrage. The accident, which shocked the nation, had initially seen the court grant bail to the accused with a mere essay on his behavior as punishment. However, the public’s outcry on social media has forced the authorities to reconsider their decision.
TV actress Yashashri Masurkar, a concerned citizen, has welcomed this move, stating that it highlights the true power of social media in bringing about justice. “I have seen unity on social media for the first time. This is a concerning issue…this rich-poor people is a big problem and it needs to be addressed,” she said.
Yashashri also emphasized the need for similar action in cases of rape involving minors. “I wish similar appeals are done in rape cases by minors,” she added.
When asked about the appropriate punishment for the accused, Yashashri suggested that he should be sent to rehab and then tried for the crime. This approach, she believes, will not only hold the accused accountable but also address any underlying issues that may have contributed to the accident.
The cancellation of bail in this case sets a precedent for future incidents, demonstrating that social media can indeed be a powerful tool in seeking justice. As Yashashri noted, “This treatment of rich-poor people is a big problem and it needs to be addressed.” The public’s collective voice on social media has ensured that the accused will face more severe consequences for his actions, and it is hoped that this will serve as a deterrent for similar incidents in the future.
