A city court on Wednesday remanded three accused of the Dhaula Kuan gangrape case, Kamruddin, Iqbal and Shahid, to a two-day police custody. The prosecution had sought seven-day police custody.
Earlier, the prosecution said that it needed to recover the mattress on which the accused allegedly raped the victim.
The prosecution also submitted that they needed to recover the clothes worn by the accused at the time of the incident.
However, the defence argued that the police had already recovered the vehicle used in crime and there was nothing substantial remaining to be recovered by the police.

Cop vigil nets robbers, and DJB clerk’s lie

New Delhi
Dec. 8: Two thieves were arrested by the Delhi police on Tuesday for carrying out burglary of `50 lakhs at the residence of a clerk at Delhi Jal Board. Mr Kuldeep Kumar had told the police that only `1-1.25 lakhs were stolen from his residence in an apparent bid to hide his income from tax officials.
“Head constable Satendra and constable Sudhir Kumar were patrolling on Wednesday morning when they found a suspect carrying a bag. The accused, Mukesh Todi, was minutes away from boarding a luxury bus near Anand Vihar Terminal when the cops stopped him and frisked his belongings. Todi broke down and told the officers that the money recovered was the larger fraction of `50 lakh that he and his brother-in-law Pawan had stolen from Moti Nagar residence of Kumar , an upper division clerk at DJB,” he said.
