'Is 'Shinde Saheb' Pulling Strings To Shield Pune's Rich Drunken Brat?' AAP's Vijay Kumbhar Raises Questions In Gaurav Ahuja Peeing And Flashing Scandal

A day after a video of Pune youth Gaurav Ahuja urinating at a traffic junction and flashing at locals went viral, AAP leader Vijay Kumbhar has raised a question asking, "Is 'Shinde Saheb' pulling strings to shield Pune’s rich drunken brat?" He also asked, "Who exactly is Shinde Saheb?"

This comes a day after Ahuja released a video clip on social media apologizing for his act. In his video, Ahuja was seen apologizing to "the police department and Shinde Saheb."

In his apology video, Ahuja stated, “I am Gaurav Ahuja, living in Pune. I deeply regret my actions from yesterday and sincerely apologize to the people of Pune, Maharashtra, and India. I also apologize to the police department and Shinde Saheb. Please forgive me and give me a chance. It will never happen again. I am truly sorry.”

It is speculated that the youth is apologizing to Maharashtra Deputy CM Eknath Shinde in the viral video, referring to him as 'Shinde Saheb.' However, there is no confirmation on whom Ahuja referred to while apologizing. Following his statement, Ahuja surrendered to Satara Police, who are now preparing to transfer him to Pune Police for further legal proceedings.

Thus, raising questions, Kumbhar said, "Interestingly, Gaurav Ahuja is not just apologizing to the public and police — he is also specifically apologizing to 'Shinde Saheb.' Now, WHO IS THIS 'SHINDE SAHEB' and what is his role in this entire episode?"

Ahuja arrested

Meanwhile, the Pune city police on Sunday said they have arrested the driver of a luxury car who allegedly engaged in "public misconduct" at a junction in Yerwada a day ago.

The accused man, identified as Gaurav Ahuja, was arrested from Karad in Satara district after being on the run, police said.

Ahuja allegedly urinated in full public view on Saturday morning, and the "public misconduct," allegedly committed under the influence of alcohol, was captured on the mobile of a passerby. It sparked outrage among locals after the video of the incident went viral on social media. He will be produced before the court later today, Senior Police Inspector Ravindra Shelke of Yerwada Police Station confirmed.

Ahuja and another person were in a BMW car and allegedly stopped at the Yerwada junction in Pune to urinate in public.
