A Delhi court on Monday (November 2, 2026) reserved its order on the CBI's plea seeking two-day transit remand of Sourabh Chandrakar, the alleged kingpin in the ₹6,000-crore Mahadev online betting app case.
Principal District and Sessions Judge Nikhil Chopra said that the order would be pronounced at 4:30 p.m.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) sought his transit remand to produce the accused before a special court in Raipur, Chhattisgarh.
Mr. Chandrakar's counsel opposed the agency's plea, saying his client had been extradited from Oman in the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) case and not in the CBI case.
Earlier on Sunday, the CBI extradited Mr. Chandrakar from Oman.
Mr. Chandrakar is wanted in two CBI cases and one Enforcement Directorate (ED) case in which chargesheets have already been filed.
