6 months jail for killing 7 people

It happens only in India. Here in India, its a classic example which has been quite a regular phenomenon over here, where people with big money & power mows down people sleeping on pavements & get away with little or no sentence.

Allister Pereira, a 21-year-old son of a Mumbai businessman who was charged with running his car over seven people sleeping on a Mumbai pavement in suburban Bandra last year, was sentenced to six months imprisonment and fined Indian Rs 500,000 (US$ 11,630) for running over seven people who died due to accident.

Around 3-4 years back son of a arms broker also mowed down around 10 people by his car and sometime back film actor Salman Khan was also involved in similar accident who is still moving around freely & living happily without any harm.

On November 12, 2006, Pereira lost control of his Toyota Corolla while returning from a party in Bandra and ran over seven people sleeping on a pavement near Carter Road Promenade. Eight others were injured in the incident.

He was allegedly to have been under the influence of alcohol at the time.
