Nashik, May 11: Nida Khan, one of the key accused in the high-profile Tata Consultancy Services (TCS)-linked s*xual harassment and alleged religious conversion case, was on Monday remanded to 14-day judicial custody by the Nashik Court. Following the court’s order, Khan was sent to Nashik Road Central Jail. She had earlier been in police custody, during which she was questioned extensively regarding several aspects of the case. Khan was produced before the court after the expiry of her police remand. After hearing submissions from both sides, the court ordered that she be lodged in judicial custody as the investigation progresses.
The case is currently being probed by the Nashik Police, with a Special Investigation Team (SIT) conducting inquiries owing to the sensitive nature of the allegations.

Police sources said surveillance teams had been monitoring the location for nearly two days before she was arrested.
The arrest was jointly executed by the Nashik SIT, the Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar Police Commissionerate, and the Crime Branch.

The residence where Nida Khan found shelter during her hiding for over a month is set to face demolition in a day or two, said Maharashtra Minister Sanjay Shirsat on Monday.
The Maharashtra minister, speaking about the gravity of crime, said that this was a very serious incident as she was given cover by an AIMIM corporator for over 35-40 days, and such an act makes him complicit too in the crime.
He said that the corporator’s house is set to face bulldozer action because it was built illegally, and the owner also failed to submit valid documents when the Municipal Corporation demanded papers. “The Municipal Corporation has given a three-day notice to the corporator, and it will certainly face demolition,” the minister told IANS.
