Prisoner transit warrant issued against Nowhera Shaik

Hyderabad, Nov 27: A local court on Monday issued prisoner transit (PT) warrant for Heera Group of Companies promoter Nowhera Shaik, following a petition filed by Central Crime Station (CCS) police.

Last week, the investigators had filed a petition for PT warrant to seek custody of Ms. Shaik, who is currently lodged in a prison at Mumbai. “The court ordered us to produce her in the first week of December,” a police officer associated with the investigation said.

A team of CCS police will go to Mumbai and submit the warrant issued in the local court there, from which she will be brought to Hyderabad. “We will seek custody of the accused for further questioning after she is transferred to Hyderabad,” the officer said.

Meanwhile, Molly Thomas, manager and personal assistant of Ms Shaik was remanded into judicial custody on Monday after five days of CCS police custody. Reportedly, Ms Thomas had destroyed some key documents of the group, prior to her arrest by Hyderabad police.
