YSR Congress party president Y S Jaganmohan Reddy is back in the custody of Central Bureau of Investigation in connection with his alleged illegal assets case.
The state high court on Friday granted the CBI a two-day custody of Jagan for further questioning in the case. The court allowed the CBI to question him on Saturday and Sunday.
The CBI argued before the high court that it needed to interrogate Jagan further as it had got more evidence against him. The CBI counsel said the investigating agency wanted to confront Jagan with fresh evidence.
The Kadapa MP was in the CBI custody for five days from June 3 to 7. On Friday, the CBI court questioned him from Chanchalguda jail itself through video conferencing mode.
The judge asked whether he had faced any trouble from the CBI during the interrogation, for which he replied in the negative. The CBI also said the questioning was done in a respectable manner in the presence of his lawyers.
