Srikant Shivde also stated that RTO Officer Keskar, had tested the vehicle and said that there was less air in one tyre. He said that if officer had already said the tyre was deflated, the case is already in the defence support.
He also said that the RTO officer R S Keskar, a crucial witness has changed his statements over the date and time of examine the vehicle. In his arguments he claimed that RTO officer is a liar. Once he said he examined the vehicle on September 28, 2002, then he said September 29, 2002.
Talking about the speed of the car, Shivade said, “From pictures it can be inferred that there was only cosmetic damage to the car. It is the prosecution’s case that the car was driving at 90 kmph and banged into a building, so the extent of damage becomes important.
The defence will continue its arguments today on, April 17, 2015.
