Hoping for justice in Banastarim mishap case

The high profile Banastarim accident which has snuffed out three innocent lives and left three others critically injured. The case was under the investigation of Mardol police.

The Works Manager finally upholds what the foreman has ruled. The case from Mardol police was transferred to the crime branch. Will the outcome be different? It is said that the person at the wheel at the time of the accident was very powerful -- means it will likely be another case like Siddhi Naik of Nachinola.
