He submitted that the suspects had been identified in the identification parade held for the purpose. He submitted that the custody of the suspects was required for interrogations and a photo grammatic test. He pleaded with the court to grant physical remand of the suspects for the purpose. At this, the court remanded the accused in police custody for five days and ordered for producing them on the expiry of the remand term.
