Tragic Revelations: Mumbai’s Worli Hit-and-Run Involved 12 Whisky Pegs Before Crash
Mihir Shah’s involvement in a fatal hit-and-run in Mumbai’s Worli area has shocked the city, with new details emerging about the night that led to tragedy. Shah and his friends reportedly consumed a staggering 12 large whisky pegs just hours before the incident, a revelation that has sparked outrage and scrutiny over responsible alcohol service.
The group left a Juhu bar around 1:30 AM, and by 5 AM, Shah’s BMW had collided with a two-wheeler, resulting in the death of Kaveri Nakhwa and injuries to her husband. Shah, who is under the legal drinking age of 25, allegedly used a fake ID to gain access to the bar, compounding the legal and ethical issues surrounding the case.
Eyewitnesses described a horrifying scene where Shah, aware that the victim was trapped under his car, continued to drive recklessly, ignoring pleas from bystanders to stop. After evading authorities briefly, Shah was apprehended and is now facing serious charges, including culpable homicide not amounting to murder.
The incident has also brought scrutiny to the Juhu bar’s practices, prompting the suspension of its alcohol license and demolition of unauthorized constructions. Authorities are investigating the bar’s role in serving underage patrons and the circumstances that led to such tragic consequences on that fateful morning.
