The Ruia Group chairman had been brought to Kolkata on Saturday after his arrest in New Delhi in a case of misappropriation of Railways property.

When asked, ADG (CID) Rajesh Kumar said: “He hasn’t revealed anything relevant so far. But we have time and will surely get all the information required. We are concentrating on how and where he had disposed of the equipment that were inside the premises of the Jessop factory in Dum Dum.”
