Salman Khan Galaxy Apartment Firing Case: Accused Sagar Pal and Vicky Gupta Sent to Judicial Custody Until May 27

In a significant development in the investigation of the firing incident outside Salman Khan's residence, accused Sagar Pal and Vicky Gupta were remanded to judicial custody by a Special MCOCA court until May 27. The decision came as their police custody ended today, and the police sought an extension for further interrogation. However, the court opted for judicial custody instead. Advocate Amit Mishra, representing the accused, expressed discontent with the court's decision, highlighting what he perceived as scripted proceedings. Mishra said, "It is unfortunate that when they were produced on April 29, there were four accused, one of whom was granted judicial custody. Today, only accused numbers one and two were produced, while others were absent. The prosecution sought their police custody without concrete evidence. The court, however, sent accused numbers one and two to judicial custody which will be till May 27 considering from May 13." Mishra further pointed out the lack of substantial evidence presented by the prosecution, aside from a purported phone call, urging for a fair trial.
