ED again gets custody of DHFL chief in Iqbal Mirchi case

MUMBAI: A special court on Monday again remanded Kapil Wadhawan, chairman and MD of Dewan Housing Finance (DHFL), to the custody of the Enforcement Directorate (ED) till February 7 in connection with a money laundering case also involving gangster Iqbal Mirchi.

Wadhawan (46) was arrested on January 27 by the ED under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) as he was allegedly not cooperating in the probe and was “untrustworthy” in his dealings and statements made to the agency.

After his arrest, he was produced before a special PMLA court which sent him in the ED’s custody for two days and later extended his remand till January 31.

He was admitted to the state-run J J Hospital here on January 31 due to ill health following which the special court sent him to judicial custody till February 3. (AGENCIES)
