The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) today took former Maharashtra home minister Anil Deshmukh into custody from Mumbai’s Arthur Road Jail in connection with an alleged corruption case.
Earlier, the probing agency had assumed custody of ex Minister’s personal assistant Kundan Shinde and secretary Sanjeev Palande, and fired assistant police inspector Sachin Vaze.
On the other hand, the Bombay High Court had refused to hear Anil’s plea. He challenged the Special CBI court’s order that permitted CBI’s application, requesting his custody.
Justice Dere ordered that the plea be put before another bench. The agency said that Deshmukh was purposely trying to evade custody of CBI. He was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in November 2021, in connection with a money laundering case.
