(IANS)
A
Mumbai
court
on
Thursday
extended
the
judicial
custody
of
Suraj
Pancholi,
charged
with
abetting
the
suicide
of
Bollywood
actress
Nafisa
alias
Jiah
Khan,
till
July
11.
Suraj
Pancholi,
22,
son
of
actor
Aditya
Pancholi,
was
produced
before
the
Andheri
magistrate
after
the
expiry
of
his
judicial
custody
in
the
morning.
At
the
hearing,
the
police
prosecutor
opposed
Suraj's
bail
plea
on
grounds
that
the
probe
into
Jiah's
case
was
at
a
critical
state
and
his
release
on
bail
could
hamper
investigations.
On
Wednesday,
Suraj
had
moved
the
Bombay
High
Court
for
bail
after
his
earlier
bail
pleas
were
rejected
both
by
the
magistrate
court
and
the
Sessions
Court.
He
will
continue
to
be
lodged
in
the
Arthur
Road
Central
Jail
till
his
bail
plea
comes
up.
On
June
3,
Jiah,
25,
was
found
hanging
in
her
flat
in
Juhu
area
here.
Suraj
was
nabbed
after
a
note
written
by
Jiah
blamed
him
for
the
suicide.
