Nisham, owner of Ferrari, surrenders

Alappuzha: Muhammad Nisham, owner of the Rs 2.75 cr Ferrari F 430 Scuderia appeared before Peramangalam Circle Inspector P.C. Bijukumar on Thursday. Nisham was summoned by the police following a You Tube grab showing his nine-year-old son Ishan Nisham driving a high-powered Ferrari. The video had sparked public protests with people coming down on the guardians of the minor boy. 
The Circle Inspector said Nisham arrived at the police station at around 12 noon. “We summoned him on the petition pertaining to a Ferrari ride which was forwarded by Thrissur Traffic Sub Inspector T.K. Unnikrishnan on Tuesday. “Nisham confessed he had filmed his son’s Ferrari dive and had uploaded it on You Tube.
He said the ownership of the Chandigarh-registered Ferrari with the registration CH04K8545 was with a firm he had been running on a partnership basis in Chandigarh. “Based on what he said, we can proceed further only with the support of the cyber cell to know whether Nisham is telling the truth or not”, said the Circle inspector.
The probe team will be headed by Jayarajan, Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Guruvayoor. Further action on the case will be taken up by Saturday. “We required a statement from the accused to register a case. Hence, we asked him to come to the station”, said the CI.
Traffic Sub Inspector Unnikrishnan had asked Nisham to appear before traffic police by Tuesday. But he did not respond to it. Following this, the issue was forwarded to the Peramanagalam police, where the incident took place.  The case was taken up City Police Commissioner P. Praksh on April 15, following a Deccan Chronicle report and a petition was forwarded to the Traffic police SI to look into the matter.
Even as the video created much furore, the boy's mother came out on April 21 justifying the illegal act. Amal Nisham, the mother, said her son had taken out the Ferrari on a “private road” in their residential colony. According to the mother, the kid was allowed the Ferrari ride as a birthday gift. She also said she had ensured that no child was around at the time. But contrary to her claims, the video shows some children and a heavy vehicle following the car.
