Kolkata, Feb 12 (IBNS): A sessions court in Kolkata on Friday extended the judicial custody of Sambia Sohrab and his friends Sanu and Johny, who were earlier arrested in connection with the Red Road hit-and- run case, by 14 days.

After the conclusion of their 12-day judicial custody term, they were produced to the Bankshall Court on Friday and judge sent them to judicial custody till Feb 26.

Meanwhile, the Kolkata Police also appealed to the court to host Test Identification (TI) Parade of Sambia, Sanu and Johny again and sought permission to interrogate the trio in jail. The Bankshall Court, however, granted both he appeals made by the Kolkata Police.

Their TI Parade was earlier held in Kolkata's Presidency Jail on Feb 4, where as many as 14 policemen and two Indian Air Force (IAF) officials took part.

A speeding Audi Q-7 car, which was registered in the name of a company- Mussadi Business Pvt Ltd- owned by former RJD MLA and presently TMC leader Md. Sohrab's elder son Ambia Sohrab, allegedly broke police barricades at Red Road and hit Indian Air Force (IAF) corporal Abhimanyu Gaud on Wednesday early morning. The airman, a 21-year-old Air Force drill instructor, was killed in the incident.

Days after the incident, Sambia Sohrab, who was allegedly driving the car that time, and his friends Sanu and Johny, who were reportedly with him that day, were arrested from different locations, while former RJD lawmaker Md. Sohrab and his elder son Ambia Sohrab are still absconding.
