PUNE: Hundreds of students on Sunday held a candlelight vigil at the spot in Pune where a speeding Porsche car driven allegedly by a drunk teenager killed two young IT professionals nearly six months ago. Students from various colleges took part in the silent vigil, expressing grief and demanding justice for the victims.
