Maharashtra Minister Nawab Malik, who was arrested in Dawood Ibrahim money laundering case, was on Friday admitted to JJ Hospital in Mumbai.
Earlier in the day, the Enforcement Directorate took Mr Malik to the hospital for medical examination.
Mr Malik has been remanded to Enforcement Directorate custody till March 3, in connection with the Dawood Ibrahim money laundering case. He was sent to Enforcement Directorate custody for seven days by a court in Mumbai in connection with the case.
Earlier, Enforcement Directorate had sought 14-day custody of the NCP leader from the court. He was arrested on Wednesday by the Enforcement Directorate.
According to the sources, Mr Malik was not cooperating during the questioning. Soon after his arrest, Mr Malik said that he is not scared and will fight and win.
Earlier this month, the Enforcement Directorate conducted raids at the residence of Dawood Ibrahim's sister Haseena Parkar in Mumbai in connection with the money laundering case.
Searches were carried out by the Enforcement Directorate at several places linked to people associated with the underworld in Mumbai, informed sources said on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, Bharatiya Janata Party had demanded the resignation of the State Minister but the Maha Vikas Agadhi (MVA-- comprising Shiv Sena, Congress and NCP) government has rejected the demand for Nawab Malik's resignation.
