MUMBAI, Nov. 22 -- The Bombay High Court on Friday rejected the bail plea of Worli hit-and-run accused Mihir Shah, citing concerns that he may tamper with evidence, influence witnesses or evade trial if released. Justice Neela Gokhale, hearing the plea, observed: "Taking into consideration the nature and gravity of the offence and Mihir's conduct post the accident, it is neither a fit case, nor in the interest of justice that Mihir be enlarged on bail." Shah, son of former Shinde Sena leader Rajesh Shah, is accused of mowing down a couple riding a scooter at Worli Sea Face in the early hours of 7 July 2024. The police say he was drunk and speeding in his BMW when he rammed into the two-wheeler. While the husband, Pradeep Nakhwa, landed on the bonnet before being flung off, his wife Kaveri was trapped under the car and dragged for over two kilometres until the vehicle broke down. A case was filed by Pradeep Nakhwa, who survived the incident. Shah fled the scene and remained missing for two days. His father and their driver, Rajrishi Bidawat, were arrested for allegedly helping him escape. Shah was arrested on July 9 2024 after an intensive search by Worli police. Since then, Shah has filed multiple bail pleas and special leave petitions before the trial court, the high court and the Supreme Court between July 2024 and August 2025, all of which were dismissed....
