Police on Thursday opposed R K Pachauri’s request for anticipatory bail in court citing they needed to take him into their custody to interrogate him. Police said Pachauri was not cooperating in the investigation.

Police, in its status report, told the court they made repeated efforts on February 18 to contact Pachauri but he was not in his residence.

Police then asked him to join the investigation and submit his electronic devices as evidence. Three laptops, one phone, one tablet and one hard disc were taken from him the following day. Police added, “On February 19… he stated he is not feeling well.” Police added that Pachauri is trying to avoid the probe, adding that he got himself admitted in a hospital on February 21 and did not inform the investigating agency.
