Police later invoked sections 308 (attempt to commit culpable homicide) of the IPC and 3 (2), (L), 2 (m) and 13 (1) of the Maharashtra Ownership Flat Act in the FIR registered against the builders/developers/partners of Alcon Landmarks and Kanchan Group, and others.The Agarwal brothers were produced before the court after their police custody remand ended on July 6. The police filed a remand report for seeking extension of their custodial remand for four days on the grounds that they were involved in serious crime. The prosecution told the court that their custodial interrogation was essential to arrest others on the run.Opposing the prosecution plea, defence lawyer Sanjay Agarwal told the court their custodial interrogation was not essential as the court had given sufficient time to police to conduct investigation since their arrest on June 29. After hearing both sides, the court sent them to magisterial remand. The Agarwal brothers are expected to file bail plea at sessions court on Monday.Follow and connect with us on Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin"
