After almost six days of interrogation, CBI produced three accused in the Navy War Room espionage case before a Delhi court, which remanded the trio to 14-day judicial custody. Naval Commander V K Jha, Mukesh Bajaj and Raj Rani Jaiswal, who were earlier in CBI custody, were on Thursday sent to judicial remand by Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Seema Maini till April 27.
The CMM also received the bail applications moved by Jha and Bajaj and posted the hearing on arguments for April 18. While Bajaj and Jaiswal were arrested in Pune on April 6, Jha was brought to the Capital from Muzaffarpur in Bihar on the same day.
