In a shocking incident on Sunday afternoon, a Lamborghini Revuelto, valued at over ₹10 crore, crashed into pedestrians and vehicles in the upscale Gwaltoli area of Kanpur, resulting in multiple injuries. The police have identified Shivam Soni, the son of a prominent tobacco baron, as the driver at the time of the crash. However, Mohan, the alleged driver, has denied this claim, asserting that he was behind the wheel. The incident has raised serious questions about responsibility and accountability, particularly given the high-profile background of those involved. Witnesses reported seeing the luxury vehicle speeding through the area before the collision, leading to concerns about reckless driving among affluent individuals. As investigations proceed, authorities are focusing on gathering evidence, including CCTV footage, to clarify the events leading up to the crash. This incident has sparked discussions about road safety and the conduct of wealthy individuals in public spaces, highlighting the need for stricter enforcement of traffic regulations to prevent such tragedies in the future.
