BSP MP, wife sent to police custody in maid murder case
Dhananjay, BSP MP from Jaunpur constituency in Uttar Pradesh, and Jagriti, a dental surgeon at the RML hospital here, were produced before Metropolitan Magistrate Dheeraj Mittal following their arrest yesterday in connection with the death of their 35-year-old maid Rakhi Bhadra, a resident of West Bengal.
"I have perused the records and considered the submissions made by the additional public prosecutor for the state and the counsel for the accused persons.
"The alleged offences are of very serious nature. The accused persons have been arrested yesterday, i.e on November 5. In my considered opinion for the recovery of the case property and in aid of the investigation, five days police custody remand is desirable. Accordingly both the accused are remanded to police custody till November 11," the magistrate said.
The police had sought seven days remand of both the accused, saying they have to recover weapons of the offence, including an iron press and video recording of the CCTV footage installed at their residence where the incident took place.
