A special court here on Tuesday remanded DRDO scientist Pradeep Kurulkar to a 14-day judicial custody till May 29. Dr. Kurulkar was recently arrested in a suspected case of honeytrap for providing confidential information to a Pakistani agent.
During the hearing on Tuesday, the scientist requested some medicines owing to comorbidities like high blood pressure. The court permitted that he be given medicines, but refused his request for home-cooked food.
On Monday, the special court had extended his police custody till Tuesday after the prosecution said that the arrested scientist’s mobile phone needed to be analysed.
