A Mumbai court on Friday remanded designer Anishka Jaisinghani in police custody till March 21 in a case registered against her for allegedly offering a bribe to Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis's wife Amruta Fadnavis for intervening in a criminal case, and also threatening her.
Anishka was arrested on Thursday, while her father, also an accused in the case, was still at large. The Malabar Hill police station had registered a First Information Report (FIR) on February 20 on Amruta Fadnavis's complaint.
The accused was produced before Sessions Judge DD Almale.
The police, represented by Chief Public Prosecutor Jaysing Desai, sought her custody for seven days, saying this is not a simple matter. Unless the person is remanded in sufficient custody, it will be difficult to investigate the case, he said.
