The state Excise Department had sealed a bar visited by Mihir and his friends on Saturday night, hours before he allegedly took the wheel of the car involved in the crash, an official said.
Mumbai Police succeeded in hunting down Mihir Shah, accused in the BMW hit-and-run case and son of Shiv Sena politician Rajesh Shah, after two days of painstaking probe when his friend made the mistake of switching on his mobile phone only for 15 minutes.
Mihir, 24, who had managed to evade the police since the accident on Sunday morning, was finally arrested from Virar near Mumbai on Tuesday.
The luxury car driven by Mihir allegedly rammed into a two-wheeler from behind in the Worli area of south-central Mumbai on Sunday morning, resulting in the death of Kaveri Nakhwa (45), who was riding pillion, while her husband Pradeep survived with injuries.
As per the police, Mihir Shah then fled from Kala Nagar area leaving his car and driver behind in an auto rickshaw, and reached his woman friend's residence in suburban Goregaon.
