Jessop owner Pawan Ruia booked in Delhi
Kolkata/New Delhi, Dec 10 (IBNS): West Bengal Criminal Investigation Department (CID) on Saturday arrested Kolkata-based businessman Pawan Ruia, owner of Jessop & Company Ltd, in Delhi for not cooperating with CID in its ongoing probe into Jessop factory fire and theft, officials said.
Earlier, Indian Railways lodged an FIR against Pawan Ruia in the same case and CID had called him several times for interrogation.
As Ruia did not appear before the probe agency, he was nabbed on Saturday.
However, Pawan Ruia will be produced to a local court in Delhi and will be taken to Kolkata on a transit remand later.
