Special court reserves order in Hemant Soren case; ex-CM to be in one-day judicial custody
Former Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren was sent to judicial custody for a day by the special PMLA court after being arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in a money laundering case. The ED sought 10 days remand for Soren but the court reserved its order. Soren's lawyer claimed that the case was driven by wrong intentions and was a conspiracy to topple the government. Soren was arrested after a seven-hour grilling by the ED in connection with an alleged land scam.
