Thiruvananthapuram, Oct. 26 -- A 17-year-old boy allegedly rammed his Mercedes Benz into a scooter, killing its rider in Keralam's Kochi in the wee hours of Sunday, police said, even as state home minister Ramesh Chennithala promised the victim's family of stern action in the case. The victim was identified as Jayabalakrishnan (55), a resident of Manjali, who operated a street food cart in the Chittor area of Kochi, said officers. According to police, the 17-year-old is the son of an additional district judge, and the car is registered in the judge's name. Following the incident, police took the teenager into custody. After a medical examination and being produced before the Juvenile Justice Board (JJB), he was released in accordance with the Juvenile Justice Act's provisions. The investigation is underway, and a decision on whether to book the boy's father, in whose name the car is registered, will be taken later, police said. Jayabalakrishnan's family said he was returning home around 2.30am after closing his food cart when the car rammed his scooter from behind in Cheranalloor. He died on the spot. Jayalakshmi, his niece, told reporters that her uncle was always careful while driving. "When we saw the accident site, it was clear that the car rammed into the scooter at high speed. My uncle was flung a few hundred metres. The injuries were so severe that he died on the spot," she said....
