Mumbai, April 8: Minal Patel, the wife of Dhrumil Patel, who died in a fatal accident in Vidyavihar in February, has moved the sessions court challenging the Juvenile Justice Board's (JJB) order granting bail to the 17-year-old accused.
On February 5, an SUV allegedly driven by the minor rammed into a scooter, critically injuring Patel and her husband. Dhrumil succumbed nine days later. The JJB granted the juvenile bail on March 7, stating offence seriousness is no ground for bail rejection.
