Sanjeev Bhatt, cop who took on Modi, sent to judicial custody
A day after he was arrested, a court in Ahmedabad today sent suspended IPS officer Sanjeev Bhatt to judicial custody. Mr Bhatt will now be lodged in Sabarmati Jail till his bail hearing comes up on Monday. The senior cop, viewed by many as a whistleblower, has accused Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi of complicity in the riots that ravaged the state in 2002. He was arrested on Friday night in Gandhinagar following a complaint of abducting and forcefully recording the statement of a constable. The statement, in question, reportedly backs Mr Bhatt's allegations against the Chief Minister.
