The investigating officer in the Kanpur Lamborghini crash case that left several people injured has said there is no need for further questioning of the accused, Shivam Kumar Mishra, reports PTI. Mishra, son of tobacco baron K K Mishra, was arrested on Thursday in connection with the incident on VIP Road and was granted bail by a Kanpur court hours later.

Police said all necessary interrogation was carried out at the time of Mishra’s arrest and that no additional questioning is required at this stage of the probe.

"Whatever questioning was required was done at the time of his arrest. There is no need to call him again," investigating officer and officiating in-charge Dinesh Kumar told PTI.

According to police records, Mishra was arrested at 8.50 am on Thursday and produced before the court within about 70 minutes, an official said on condition of anonymity. The brief time span between arrest and court appearance has raised questions in several quarters about how arrest formalities, interrogation and production before the court were completed within such a limited duration, the official added.

When asked about the sequence of events and the timeline followed by the police, the investigating officer declined to comment.

Kumar said Mishra has submitted documents related to the Lamborghini sports car involved in the crash and that no further paperwork is pending from him. He added that the investigation remains ongoing.

"The investigation is on. Evidence is being collected and a chargesheet will be filed before the court soon," Kumar asserted.

Mishra was granted bail by the court later on Thursday. The court directed him to cooperate with the investigation and to appear before authorities on scheduled dates as required. Police said further action in the case will be based on the evidence being gathered.
