Sagar Rana murder case: Court rejects Delhi Police plea seeking extension of Sushil Kumar's custody, wrestler sent to 14-day judicial custody

Delhi Police had moved a plea in the court seeking an extension of 3-day custody of accused Sushil Kumar, but the request was denied by Rohini court.

New Delhi’s Rohini court on Wednesday (June 2) refused Delhi Police's plea seeking extension of custody of wrestler Sushil Kumar by 3 days and sent the Olympic medallist and his associate Ajay to 14-days of judicial custody after being produced before the judge in connection with the Sagar Rana murder case. Earlier, Delhi Police had moved a plea in the court seeking an extension of 3-day custody of accused Sushil as their prosecutor Atul Shrivastava said that custody of the wrestler is required to recover clothes which he was wearing and weapon used in the alleged offence and to take him again to Haridwar. However, advocate Pradeep Rana, appearing for wrestler Sushil Kumar, has opposed police plea seeking extension of custody saying that enough time has given to police to question him.
