Former police officer Sachin Waze, an accused in the Antilia bomb scare-Mansukh Hiran murder case, on Friday moved an application before a special court here seeking permission for placing him under 'house custody' for recovery post an open heart surgery.

The court directed the National Investigation Agency (NIA), probing the case, to file a reply to Waze's plea and adjourned the matter for hearing on September 27.
