Mumbai: Court grants Sachin Waze’s custody tocrime branch
Mumbai: The National Investigation Agency (NIA) court on Friday granted permission to the city crime branch to take custody of dismissed assistant police inspector Sachin Waze as part of the probe into the extortion case registered against him and former police commissioner Param Bir Singh, among others.
The crime branch is to take Waze’s custody on November 1 from Taloja jail, after which he will be produced before the 37th metropolitan magistrate court. It will be the first time that Waze is taken outside the prison since his heart surgery. The NIA court directed the prison authorities to hand over Waze’s custody. After the crime branch is done with its process, he will be returned to Taloja jail.
Meanwhile, on Saturday, the 37th court is also likely to issue a non-bailable warrant against Singh. The non-bailable warrant will pave the way to declare him an absconder. The state government has already stopped his salary from this month, and will soon declare him an absconder if he fails to appear.
