Mumbai, July 21: Arrested 26/11 key handler Abu Jundal was brought to Mumbai in the wee hours today after a Delhi court handed over his custody to Mumbai ATS, which wanted him in connection with a series of terror attacks in Maharashtra.

"Jundal was flown to Mumbai and taken to a safe place amid tight security," a police official told PTI.

Jundal will be later today produced before the Chief Metropolitan Magistrate in Esplanade Court in south Mumbai, which has been heavily guarded by the police.

Delhi's Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Vinod Yadav yesterday directed that Jundal be handed over to Mumbai ATS after the Delhi Police said he was no longer required to be interrogated by it in the Jama Masjid attack case.

Jundal is wanted by the Mumbai Police in the 2006 Aurangabad arms haul case, the 26/11 Mumbai mayhem, the 2010 German Bakery blast and attack on Nashik Academy, a state-level training institution for Maharashtra Police personnel.

"This accused is required in Mumbai in four cases. This court deems it fit at this stage to transfer the custody of the accused to ATS Mumbai only for the purpose of production of this accused before Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Mumbai on July 21 before 4 PM," the court ordered yesterday.

"The CMM, Mumbai would in his wisdom consider the comparative merit and the requirement of the accused in the four cases and would grant custody of this accused accordingly," the court had said.

The court also directed that "after completion of the interrogation of the accused in these four cases, he be brought back to Delhi, so that the issue of handing over of his custody to NIA and other agencies may be considered."

Mumbai ATS had told the court that Jundal's custody is "absolutely essential" in the Aurangabad arms haul case, where he is an accused and has been declared a proclaimed offender.

Officers from the Detection Crime Branch and Mumbai ATS also stressed for Jundal's custody in the German bakery blast case and the Nashik Police Academy case, saying he was one of the conspirators in those incidents.

New Delhi, May 10: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday demanded that Prime Minister Narendra Modi ensured audit of donations made to the PM-CARES Fund, and to share the details and the money spent with the people.

"The PM-CARES Fund has received huge contributions from PSUs and major public utilities like the Railways. It's important that the Prime Minister ensure the fund is audited and that the record of money received and spent is available to the public," he tweeted.

The #PmCares fund has received huge contributions from PSUs & major public utilities like the Railways.

It’s important that PM ensures the fund is audited & that the record of money received and spent is available to the public.

— Rahul Gandhi (@RahulGandhi) May 9, 2020
His remarks came amid reports that the central government is accumulating a huge sum of money in the Prime Minister's Citizen Assistance and Relief in Emergency Situations Fund set up as a corpus to fight novel coronavirus and that the amount spent will not be audited by the Comptroller and Auditor General.

The CAG office had clarified that since the fund is based on donations, it has no right to audit a charitable organisation.

On Friday, Rahul Gandhi told the media that the PM-CARES Fund should be audited and people of the country should know about the donors and the donations made.
