Mumbai, Jun 18 (PTI) Bollywood actor Shiney Ahuja, accused of raping his young domestic help, was today sent to judicial custody till July two by a local court which refused to extend his three-day police remand, observing that his further interrogation was not required in the case. Ahuja's lawyer Srikant Shivade said he might approach a Sessions Court tomorrow seeking bail for the actor, which means Ahuja will have to spend a night in central prison at Arthur Road here. The prosecution sought police custody of the 35-year-old actor for three more days as they were awaiting his and the victim's medical and forensic reports.
The actor complained that he was being handcuffed while being produced in the court and that it was hurting his hands. The magistrate warned the police not to do so again. Ahuja looked happy to see his wife in the court and whispered to her, "things will be fine". Police said "the actor's urine and blood samples have been taken and we need to probe if the actor was under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time of the incident". Police, which had earlier stated that the maid was 18 years old, today said she is 20 as per the school certificate obtained from her native place Roha in nearby Raigad district
