New Delhi: Jailed conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar has been arrested again by the Enforcement Directorate (ED), in another extortion case.

A money laundering case was filed by Japna Singh, wife of former Religare promoter Malvinder Singh.

ED sought 14-day custody of Sukesh for cheating and extorting Singh of Rs 4 crore on grounds that he had been withholding evidence, giving false, evasive statements and not cooperating with the investigation.

Patiala House court, after hearing submissions of both parties, granted 9-day remand of Sukesh.

According to ED, Sukesh posed as a government official and duped Singh while he was lodged in Tihar jail.

Sukesh was already in judicial custody in a Rs 200-crore scam, having been arrested on the basis of a complaint by Malvinder Singh’s brother Shivinder Singh’s wife Aditi Singh.

He allegedly extorted Rs 200 crore from Aditi in a similar fashion.
