Hiren Bhagat, also known as Romi Bhagat, who was arrested in a Rs 164 crore extortion case, has been remanded in judicial custody for 14 days. The crime branch requested an additional day of custody, but the court declined, stating that the investigating unit, Crime Branch Unit 09, has sufficient time to interrogate him. Advocate Jugal Kanani, representing Bhagat, said, “The police sought an extra day for interrogation, citing some accused still being at large.”
