A special court on Monday extended the Central Bureau of Investigation’s custody of former Home Minister of Maharashtra Anil Deshmukh in a corruption case till April 16.
Mr. Deshmukh was arrested by the Central agency on April 6 and was sent to CBI custody till April 11. He along with personal assistant Kundan Shinde, personal secretary Sanjeev Palande and suspended police officer Sachin Vaze were produced in the court on Monday .
The CBI counsel sought more time on the grounds that interrogation needs to take place at length. Three hours in a day gets wasted because of breakfast, lunch, dinner and family visits.
