In addition to the family members, the police have arrested Dr Ajay Taware, former head of the forensic medicine department at Sassoon General Hospital, medical officer Dr Shrihari Halnor and employee Atul Ghatkamble for allegedly tampering with the minor's blood samples to hide his alcohol consumption at the time of the accident.
