KOLKATA: Former deputy commissioner of police (detective) Ajay Kumar and two other police officers included in the charge sheet in the Rizwanur Rahman death case today surrendered before a city court which sent them to 14 days' judicial custody.
The court rejected their bail applications, CBI counsel Partha Tapaswi said.
Apart from Kumar, the other two officers are former assistant commissioner of police (anti rowdy section) Sukanti Chakraborty and inspector of police Krishnendu Das.
The CBI, which is investigating the case, as per the order of the Calcutta High Court had earlier filed a charge sheet in connection with the case. The three officers had been charged with criminal intimidation and conspiracy.
The CBI filed the charge sheet against the seven accused in the case including industrialist Ashok Todi on September 22.
Rizwanur, a computer graphics teacher, had married Priyanka, daughter of Ashok Todi, on August 18, last year and began living with her at his Park Circus residence from August 21.
Rizwanur and Priyanka thereafter were summoned to the Kolkata Police headquarters thrice allegedly at the behest of Todi and his relatives and she returned to her father's home on the third occasion on September 8.
