Kolkata, Dec 11 (IBNS): A West Bengal court on Sunday sent arrested Kolkata-based businessman Pawan Ruia, owner of Jessop & Company Ltd, to 14-day CID custody.

Pawan Ruia was produced in Barrackpore court.

He has been sent to custody for further interrogation.


The CID on Saturday arrested Ruia in Delhi for not cooperating with the probe agency in its ongoing investigation into Jessop factory fire and theft, officials said.

He was brought to Kolkata on Saturday night.

Earlier, Indian Railways lodged an FIR against Pawan Ruia in the same case and CID had called him several times for interrogation.

Ruia did not appear before the probe agency.
