The Bengaluru police impounded a white Lamborghini after multiple videos of the car performing donuts at Anil Kumble Circle went viral. It now turns out that the Lamborghini owner is the son of a late underworld don.
MotorBiscuit reported the incident after citizens urged the police on X to take action against the culprit. Between 2:00 a.m. and 3:00 a.m., the driver of the white Lamborghini performed several donuts at the busy junction.
The smoky stunt attracted attention from passersby as the tires screeched loudly before the driver sped off toward Tonique Circle.
Officers at the Cubbon Park Traffic Police registered a suo motu FIR (First Information Report) against the vehicle’s owner, who now appears to be Ricky Rai, son of late underworld don Muthappa Rai.

Ricky Rai was in the news last year after assailants opened fire near his residence in Bidadi. He survived the incident and was treated at the hospital.
His late father, Muthappa Rai, was known to be an influential underworld figure in the state of Karnataka, India.
He climbed the ranks through his criminal networks in the 80s and was accused of extortion, illegal land dealings, and organized crime. However, he was acquitted in many cases due to a lack of evidence.
