Panaji: The black Audi which was attached from education minister Atanasio Monserrate’s house by the police had been on the road for the last few months without registration.
The car was attached since the German minor has claimed Monserrate’s son Rohit had taken her for a drive in it to Bambolim, where he had sex with her. Rohit has denied having sex with the girl.
Police said the car had been brought into Goa three months ago on a temporary registration in Atanasio Monserrate’s name. The permanent registration has not been done. RTO officials said this was in violation of the Motor Vehicles Act, which says “no person shall drive any motor vehicle and no owner of motor vehicle shall cause or permit the vehicle to be driven at any public place unless the vehicle is registered by the RTO”.
Monserrate said, “The car company was not registered with the RTO here and therefore the car didn’t have a registration number. Now that the company has been registered, we will soon get a number.”
