He was then arrested by the police and on Monday was shown before the holiday court of the additional chief metropolitan magistrate. Shekhar Jagtap, the special public prosecutor along with Sairuchita Chowdhary, the lawyer sought Waze’s custody on 13 grounds, stated reports.
This included the Mumbai police’s need to question him if he had extorted money from others for the former police commissioner of Mumbai, Param Bir Singh. Last week, a court issued a non-bailable warrant against Singh in the mentioned case.
It was also submitted by the Mumbai police that they wanted to question Waze to see if he knows about Singh’s location that continue to be under wraps.
Mumbai police crime branch’s probe against Waze, Singh and others is according to a complaint filed by a restaurant owner claiming that the accused extorted money for the seamless functioning of two eateries.
Waze had opposed the police being accorded his custody stating his ill health, but the special NIA court permitted the plea by the Mumbai police.
