Baba Siddique Murder Case: Mumbai Police Seek Centre's Intervention To Secure Anmol Bishnoi's Custody For Interrogation

Mumbai police are urging the state home department to seek central government intervention to secure custody of Anmol Bishnoi for interrogation in a murder case involving former NCP leader Baba Siddique. Prosecutors argue that custodial interrogation is necessary to uncover a larger conspiracy, but have been unable to obtain Bishnoi's custody.

A July plea filed by Mumbai police in a special NIA court in Delhi was rejected due to central government's order restricting Bishnoi's removal from prison until the NIA trial concludes. Recently, Mumbai police sent a letter to the state government requesting relaxation of the order, but the department has not yet responded. The prosecution submitted a confidential report to the court detailing steps taken to arrest Bishnoi, which it maintains must be kept sealed due to sensitive information.
