AgustaWestland Chopper scam: CBI Special Court sends Christian Michel to 5-day CBI custody
  • 5 years ago
Christian Michel, the alleged middleman in the politically sensitive Rs 3,600 AgustaWestland chopper scam, will be produced before special judge Arvind Kumar in a Delhi’s Patiala court today. The hearing will take place post noon. At present, Michel is at the CBI headquarters in the national capital where he is being probed by the agency officials. Meanwhile, Michel’s legal team has applied for Indian visa to arrive in India. He was extradited to India from the United Arab Emirates on Tuesday night in an operation carried out under the guidance of National Security Advisor (NSA) Ajit Doval. It is seen as a big diplomatic win for Narendra Modi government and comes at a time when External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj is in the Gulf country for bilateral talks between the two countries.
