A special Mumbai court on Monday, 8 August, sent Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut to judicial custody till 22 August in the Patra Chawl money laundering case.
The court last Thursday had extended Raut's Enforcement Directorate custody till 8 August, while noting the agency had made “remarkable progress” in the probe into the money laundering case involving the Shiv Sena leader.
The ED had then sought his further custody for eight days, saying it has unearthed a new trail of money.
The court said that Raut will get access to all his medicines in judicial custody.
The Sena leader's legal team also decided to not move a bail plea on Monday.
Raut, a Rajya Sabha member, was found to be beneficiary of Rs 1.17 crore of proceeds of crime in addition of Rs 1.06 crore that had come to light earlier, it claimed.
