Court sends Chhota Rajan to judicial custody
New Delhi, Nov 20 (IBNS) Underworld don Chhota Rajan, who has been in CBI custody since his arrival in India, was on Thursday sent to two weeks in judicial remand.
Reports said the thegangster will now be lodged in Tihar jail, where a heavy security arrangement has been made.
The CBI had earlier this week asked the court to extend Rajan's custody after initially getting his custody for 10 days. The court had then extended his custody till November 19 in the case of procurement of a passport on the basis of fake documents.
Rajan was being held at the CBI headquarters in New Delhi where he had been questioned. The gangster a friend-turned-foe of underworld mafia Dawood Ibrahim, was arrested by the Indonesian police last month for allegedly procuring a passport by providing fake documents to the Indian mission in Zimbabwe.
