A high-end luxury sports car allegedly belonging to Ricky Rai, son of late underworld operative Muthappa Rai, has once again landed in controversy after a video showing the vehicle being driven at high speed on the road leading to Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) went viral on social media.The vehicle, bearing registration number KA 05 NR 0009, was reportedly seen being driven recklessly, creating loud exhaust noises and causing public nuisance. The viral video appears to show flames emerging from the modified exhaust system while the car was speeding, triggering widespread criticism online.The same Lamborghini had earlier been involved in a drifting case on March 21 near Kumara Krupa Road and Cubbon Park in Bengaluru. At the time, Rai initially denied driving the vehicle. However, CCTV footage later reportedly confirmed his presence behind the wheel, following which a case was registered and a penalty was imposed.Based on the latest video footage from the International Airport Road, the police have launched a probe. Investigators are examining CCTV footage to determine when the incident occurred, who was inside the vehicle at the time of the incident, and whether Rai was behind the wheel or if it was being driven by another person. The police said the viral footage prima facie indicated violations of provisions of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, including dangerous driving, unauthorised vehicle modifications, and breach of prescribed vehicle safety and noise-control standards.The Devanahalli Traffic Police have issued a notice to Rai in connection with alleged dangerous driving and vehicle modification violations. According to the notice, videos circulated on social media allegedly showed a vehicle bearing registration number KA 05 NR 0009 being driven recklessly on a public road near KIA on May 20 around 12.09 a.m. The vehicle was reportedly producing excessive noise and was being driven in a manner that endangered public safety.The notice directs Rai to appear before the inspector of the Devanahalli Traffic Police Station within three days along with the vehicle and relevant documents and submit a written explanation regarding the alleged violations. The police have warned that failure to comply with the notice may result in legal action. Published - June 13, 2026 07:14 pm IST
