Panchkula (Har), May 26 (PTI) A local court here today extended the judicial custody of Samjhauta blast case accused Swami Aseemanand till June seven after the investigating agency NIA assured the Judge that a charge sheet will be filed against him before the next date of hearing.
The hearing in the case took place through video-conferencing with the accused lodged in central jail in Ambala.
The defence submitted that the NIA team, which sought a permission from the court to interrogate Aseemanand for two days on Saturday and Sunday last, did not turn up even as the Swami's advocate was present on the both the occasions.
The prosecution has failed to do justice as it had asked the court to give it two days time to further interrogate the alleged accused, the defence told the court.
