HYDERABAD: A day after socialite-cum-film producer Shilpa Chowdary’s police custody ended, a local court in Rajendranagar on Monday granted cops one more day of custody.
Narsingi police said that the court permitted them keep her in custody from from 11am on Tuesday to 11am on Wednesday. Shilpa was earlier sent to judicial remand after her three-day police custody ended on Sunday.
Police had cited bank holidays (Saturday and Sunday) as the reason for seeking one more day of custody as they could not get full details of her transactions. Police said that Shilpa and her family members have 6 bank accounts and a locker.
So far, she has been questioned on two different occasions by the police after court’s permission.
Shilpa was first arrested on the complaint of businesswoman Divya Reddy and till now there has been three complaints against her at Narsingi police station. In all the three cases, victims sent money into the bank accounts of the accused and family members by issuing either cheques or a portion of the total amount through cash.
Shilpa’s husband and co-accused T Srinivas Prasad is out on bail.
