PMLA Court to hear DKShi's bail application on Friday
New Delhi: PMLA Court in New Delhi will on Friday hear the bail application of former Karnataka Minister and senior Congress leader DK Shivakumar who has been arrested by Enforcement Directorate on alleged money laundering case. Shivakumar’s ED custody ends tomorrow.
A day before his ED custody ended, Shivakumar’s daughter Aishwarya was summoned before the ED following which she appeared before the authorities for questioning.
Shivakumar will be presented before the court on Friday as his ED custody ends. His lawyer will reportedly seek his bail, which if granted will come as a breather to the Congress leader. ED on the other hand is expected to seek extension of Shivakumar’s custody for continuing the probe. The court is likely to grant extension of custody to the ED.
Among other possibilities, Shivakumar might also secure bail after submitting his passport to the court barring him to leave the country. The possibility of judicial custody can also be not ruled out on Friday. If sent to Judicial Custody, Shivakumar might also share Tihar jail with another senior Congress leader P Chidambaram.

Woman's decomposed body found at rented flat in Bengaluru
Bengaluru (PTI): The body of a 34-year-old woman was found in a decomposed condition at her rented flat in Bengaluru, police said on Tuesday.
The deceased was identified as Pooja Dutta, a native of Dhanbad in Jharkhand, who was employed with a private company here, they said.
The incident in Adugodi came to light on Monday after neighbours alerted police about a foul smell emanating from her flat, police added.
Police said a team reached the spot, broke open the door and found Dutta's body in a nude and decomposed state, lying in a pool of blood. Preliminary suspicion is that the death may have occurred two to three days earlier, they said.
According to police, no death note was recovered from the spot, though torn papers were found scattered inside the house, prompting suspicion that she may have died by suicide after locking the door from inside.
The body has been sent for post-mortem examination to ascertain the exact cause of death. Once the autopsy report is received, it will be confirmed if it was a suicide or a murder, a senior police officer said, adding that all angles are being probed.
According to the landlady, Dutta had been living in the rented flat for the past three years and was last seen on April 23 when she went out to buy groceries.
The Adugodi police have registered a case of unnatural death, and further investigation is underway.
