After the National Investigation Agency, now the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad will be seeking custody of former Mumbai assistant police inspector Sachin Waze in connection with the investigation into the Mansukh Hiran death case, top ATS sources said.
As per sources, the ATS will oppose the anticipatory bail application of Sachin Waze in Thane sessions court today.
Waze had moved Thane Sessions court seeking anticipatory bail.
Waze was arrested by the NIA on March 13 in the probe into recovery of explosives from the SUV.
He was later suspended.
Waze, an 'encounter specialist', has also been facing heat in the murder case of Thane-based businessman Mansukh Hiran, who was in possession of that SUV.
Hiran was found dead in a creek in Thane district on March 5.
Under fire over handling of the bomb scare outside Ambani's house, Maharashtra Government on Wednesday shifted Mumbai Police Commissioner Param Bir Singh to the Home Guard.
Senior IPS officer Hemant Nagrale has replaced Singh as Mumbai police commissioner.
