A Delhi court on Monday extended until October 7 the judicial custody of AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan in a money laundering case.
Special Judge Rakesh Syal issued the order after Khan was presented upon the expiry of his earlier judicial custody. The Enforcement Directorate (ED), which arrested Khan on September 2, argued before the court that his release could influence witnesses and jeopardize the ongoing investigation.
Khan was detained under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) following a raid at his residence in the Okhla area of Delhi. During the raid, Khan was reportedly evasive in answering questions, which led to his arrest.
