A 19-year-old son of a successful businesswoman, Suhail Sajeev, has been arrested in Kerala following a speeding car crash that killed three young colleagues, according to police reports. The incident occurred near Cochin International Airport, where the Mini Cooper driven by Suhail collided with a scooter, resulting in the tragic deaths of Devika, 21, from Wayanad, Gopika, 21, from Palakkad, and Iyas, 23, from Karnataka.

A viral video also showed Suhail arguing aggressively with residents after the crash, claiming his father would handle everything.
