Days after filing the charge sheet in the Ghatkopar hoarding collapse case, the special investigation team (SIT) of the Mumbai Crime Branch wants custodial interrogation of Govandi businessman Arshad Khan, allegedly a close associate of suspended IPS officer Quaiser Khalid whose role is being probed by the SIT. Khan, said to be untraceable, moved an anticipatory bail application before the sessions court via his lawyer Ranjit Patil. The SIT has opposed the plea in the session court, arguing the need for his custodial interrogation.
