AHMEDABAD: A metropolitan court on Saturday sent social activist Teesta Setalvad and former DGP R B Sreekumar to judicial custody after their custodial interrogation ended and the newly constituted special investigation team (SIT) did not seek further remand.
While heading to Sabarmati Central Jail, Setalvad raised an issue of her security in prison and her advocate Somnath Vats tendered an application to the court stating that there were many people who were convicted for their roles in the post-Godhra riots because of the efforts of Setalvad's NGO. Some of them are women convicts too and asked the court to issue directions for her security in prison.
