Mumbai Ecstasy Case: Paul, Sayyed Remanded to Police Custody Till April 28

The remand gives the ANC time to trace supply sources, jail links, cash flows.

Overview

  • Paul and her live-in partner Aamir Sayyed were produced in court Wednesday, and both were remanded to police custody until April 28 as the Anti-Narcotics Cell expands its probe.
  • Police took Sayyed into custody from jail on Tuesday on suspicion he supplied about 5,000 Ecstasy pills that officers say were seized from Paul.
  • A passport found at a Titwala flat linked investigators to Sayyed and revealed personal ties that are now guiding checks on supply routes and finances.
  • Investigators report jailhouse links in the case, alleging an accused named Irfan drew Paul into the trade and that a man named Sufiyan acted as a carrier.
  • Officials cite Sayyed’s earlier DRI cocaine cases and a February bail cancellation as context for his custody and for questions about the alleged supply chain.
