The CBI Special Court at Nampally on Thursday extended judicial remand of former Prohibition and Excise Minister Mopidevi Venkata Ramana till June 21. He was arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation in connection with the disproportionate assets case of YSR Congress president Jagan Mohan Reddy.
The court took this decision after Mopidevi was produced following the expiry of his judicial custody. Following the court’s directions, the officials shifted Mopidevi to Chanchalguda Central Jail.
It may be recalled that the CBI arrested Mopidevi for irregularities in the allotment of lands for the VANIPIC project as the then Investments and Infrastructure minister. (INN)
