On Monday, Amber Dalal, the prime accused and mastermind in a scam worth over a thousand crores, was granted seven more days of police remand. This remand, which began on March 27 was extended until April 8, The Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of the Mumbai police, currently investigating the case, presented Dalal before the court. Additionally, the court permitted Dalal’s defence advocate to meet him in police custody for two hours daily.

Questioning on extracted data

In their remand application, the police reiterated the complaint details and arrest sequence of Dalal in Uttarakhand. However, they expressed concern over Dalal’s evasive responses during questioning, particularly regarding his activities in the USA and UAE. This was cited as one of twelve reasons for requesting an extended remand. Additionally, data from two of Dalal’s mobile phones has been extracted, and he is currently being interrogated based on this evidence.
