Delhi court orders 2-day transit remand for Mahadev app promoter
Sourabh Chandrakar is in custody after Oman surrendered him following an extradition order.
Delhi’s court has granted a 2-day transit remand for Mahadev app promoter Sourabh Chandrakar, after Oman ordered his extradition on the basis of a request by India’s Enforcement Directorate.
Chandrakar was arrested on November 1 at 7.35 pm and produced before the court at around 11.45 am on Monday. The CBI told the court he had been detained in Oman for illegal entry using forged travel documents, before the Omani government surrendered him to India.
An open-ended non-bailable warrant issued against Chandrakar by the CBI special court in Raipur was pending. He has also been charge-sheeted in the case.
The court decision covers the 2-day transit period granted to Chandrakar as legal process continues following his transfer from Oman.
