Mihir Shah, 24, was apprehended by the Mumbai Police from Virar near Mumbai after evading capture for two days. Shah, the son of Shiv Sena leader Rajesh Shah, allegedly drove his BMW into a two-wheeler in the Worli area of south-central Mumbai on the morning of July 7. The collision resulted in the death of a woman and injury to her husband.
After the incident, Shah fled the scene in an auto-rickshaw, leaving his car and driver behind in Kala Nagar. He sought refuge at a woman friend’s residence in suburban Goregaon. His sister then took him and his friend to her home in Borivali. Subsequently, the Shah family fled to a resort in Shahapur, Thane district, traveling in an Audi car. Shah’s mother, Meena, sisters Kinjal and Pooja, and two friends also stayed at the resort.
The police brought Mihir Shah’s mother and two sisters to Mumbai for questioning, along with 10 others, as part of the investigation.
