Jagan challenges arrest

HYDERABAD: Justice B Chandra Kumar of the Andhra Pradesh HC on Wednesday adjourned its session  to Thursday to hear petitions filed by the CBI and Jagan Mohan Reddy — who was remanded to 14 days in judicial custody — in the illegal assets case. The court also permitted the CBI to serve personal notices to the respondents including Jagan, the prime accused in the case. The CBI has filed two petitions — one challenging a lower court’s order to remand Jagan to judicial custody and another to seek police custody of the accused. On the other hand, Jagan’s counsels have also filed two petitions — one challenging the legality of his arrest and another challenging his judicial custody.
