Nawab Malik News: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) clarified before the special court that a transaction of Rs 55 lakh took place between Maharashtra cabinet minister Nawab Malik and Dawood Ibrahim’s sister Haseena Parkar. In the first custody application, the amount due to typographical omission was mentioned to be Rs 15 lakh. The court extended Malik’s custody till March 7 after the ED admitted the default. According to the second custodial application of the ED, the background of the case including the arrest of the accused was presented in the first custodial application. Please read it in its present context. The earlier custodial application failed to be typed and should have been read as Rs 55 lakh.
On this, senior advocate Amit Desai, appearing for Malik, said that this may cause a deep blow to the conscience of the court. ASG Anil Singh, appearing for the agency, said it was actually a typo and no one noticed. He said that one crore rupees was terrorist funding and it is terrorist funding. The Enforcement Directorate also told the court that Malik remained in the hospital for three-four days and the crucial period of custody has passed. More time is needed to interrogate the minister. This is because he has recorded some more statements.
Earlier, Nawab Malik was arrested on February 23 at the Enforcement Directorate (ED) office in South Mumbai after nearly five hours of interrogation. He was produced before Special Court Judge RN Rokade on Thursday at the end of his initial remand. The court extended his custody till March 7 for further investigation in the matter.
