Pune Porsche Accident: Amid nationwide outrage over the death of two IT professionals, who were mowed to death by a 17-year-old boy driving a Porsche, a member of the Juvenile Justice Board, Dr LN Danwade, who granted bail to the minor boy, was heavily trolled on social media for not wearing a helmet while riding a two-wheeler. Danwade made headlines following his contentious decision to ask the teen accused in the case to write a 300-word essay as a condition for bail in the absence of other panel members.
In a video, now making rounds on social media, Danwade was seen running away without answering queries from journalists surrounding him while riding a scooter without a helmet.
He is LN Danwade, judge of Juvenile Justice Board.

Taking to X, netizens trolled the judge of the Juvenile Justice Board (JJB) for not wearing a helmet. One of the users wrote, “No problem. The traffic cops will tell him to write an essay about the joys of riding a scooter without a helmet.”
Another user tagged Pune Police and wrote, “I expect you to note this scooterist without a helmet and take action as per traffic laws. There should be no difference when it comes to enforcing the law.”
“That's Dr LN Danwade, a Juvenile Justice Board member who granted swift bail to the Pune teen Porsche driver. He is driving rashly without a helmet, endangering his and others lives on the road. Can he at least be plz asked to write a 200 words essay plz,” wrote another user.
The outrage against Danwade came after he allowed the 17-year-old son of Pune-based real estate developer Vishal Agarwal, who allegedly mowed down two bike-borne IT professionals after hitting them with his Porsche car while driving in an intoxicated state, to go free without any strict punishment.
The board asked the boy to work with traffic police in Yerawada for 15 days, write an essay about the accident, seek medical treatment to quit drinking and receive psychiatric counselling.
