A new video has surfaced in the aftermath of a high-profile Lamborghini crash in Kanpur, showing a bouncer attempting to remove the vehicle’s number plate moments after the collision that left six people injured.
The footage emerged hours after Shivam Mishra, son of tobacco businessman KK Mishra, was arrested Thursday morning in connection with the incident. Police said Mishra was taken into custody in Kanpur following a tip-off, four days after the crash occurred. He underwent a routine medical examination before being presented in court.
Authorities formed five teams to track him down, according to Deputy Commissioner of Police AK Srivastava, who confirmed the arrest and court appearance.
The 36-second video circulating online shows a man identified as Mishra’s bouncer trying to detach the number plate from the Lamborghini Revuelto, an Italian luxury sports car valued at more than Rs 10 crore. Police officers are visible nearby as the attempt is made. Mishra’s driver, Mohan, who has claimed he was behind the wheel at the time of the crash, is also seen at the scene.
In a separate video recorded shortly after the crash, a bouncer is seen pulling Mishra out of the damaged vehicle and carrying him away while bystanders record the aftermath.
The crash occurred on Kanpur’s VIP Road when the Lamborghini struck pedestrians and vehicles. Eyewitnesses alleged that Mishra was intoxicated and driving at high speed.
Mohan told reporters outside court that he lost control of the vehicle after Mishra, seated beside him, allegedly suffered a sudden seizure and fell onto him. He said the car struck a three-wheeler, mounted a divider and came to a stop. He also claimed the vehicle’s automatic locking system initially prevented him from exiting.
Police did not name Mohan as an accused in their report to the court. The court declined to accept his surrender and requested a detailed report from the Gwaltoli police station.
An initial First Information Report was filed against unidentified individuals, with Mishra’s name added the following day. Police officials said procedural lapses after the crash amounted to negligence and prompted immediate action.
