A recent incident in Chennai has drawn comparisons to a similar case in Pune involving a Porsche. This time, it involves Beedha Madhuri, the daughter of YSR Congress Rajya Sabha MP Beedha Masthan Rao. The young woman was arrested and later released on bail for causing the death of a man due to her negligence, according to the police.
The unfortunate incident took place in Besant Nagar, when Madhuri, who was driving the car, ran over a painter who was sleeping on the pavement. She then fled the scene with another woman who was in the car with her. The incident happened on the night of June 17, and locals claimed that both women were under the influence of alcohol. The victim, identified as Surya, was pronounced dead upon arrival at a nearby hospital.
The Adyar Traffic Investigation Wing police wasted no time in registering a case of death by negligence against Madhuri. She was subsequently arrested and released on bail from the police station on Tuesday. It is reported that Madhuri surrendered herself to the police in the presence of her legal counsel on Tuesday morning. She was charged under Section 304A of the Indian Penal Code, but was soon granted bail from the police station.
However, there has been criticism surrounding the decision to grant station bail instead of court bail. According to a senior police official, this decision was a mistake as it would have been more beneficial to have the accused released on court bail, which would have also resulted in the collection of the driver's medical report.
Madhuri's father, who is a well-known figure in the seafood industry, was elected as a Rajya Sabha MP in 2022 and has also served as an MLA in the past. This incident has caused a stir in the city and has brought attention to the BMR group, which is owned by the family. The police are continuing their investigation into the case.
