A court in Gujarat on Saturday sent activist Teesta Setalvad and former Director General of Police R B Sreekumar, arrested for alleged fabrication of evidence regarding the 2002 Gujarat riots cases, in 14-day judicial custody.
The two were produced before metropolitan magistrate S P Patel after their police custody ended. The police did not seek their further remand, said special public prosecutor Amit Patel.
Ms Setalvad and Mr Sreekumar were arrested over a First Information Report (FIR) registered last Saturday by the Ahmedabad police crime branch.
"The investigation officer did not ask for any further custody. They were hence sent in 14-day judicial custody," prosecutor Patel said.
