New Delhi, Apr 3 (PTI) A special court on Monday extended the judicial custody of former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia till April 17 in a corruption case related to the alleged Delhi excise scam.
Special Judge M K Nagpal, who had dismissed Sisodia’s bail application on Friday saying he was "prima facie the architect" and played the "most important and vital role" in the alleged scam, extended his custody after he was produced before the court. Sisodia's judicial custody was to expire on Monday.
The judge passed the order on an application by the CBI claiming the investigation was at a crucial stage in the corruption case linked to the "scam".
