Mangaluru: The man, who is suspected to have planted a bomb at the airport here, was on Thursday produced before a city court, which remanded him to 10 days police custody.
A day after Aditya Rao surrendered before the police in Bengaluru, he was produced before the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court Judge Kishore Kumar, who allowed the plea of the police seeking his custody for further investigation.
A heavy posse of police personnel was deployed in the court premises when the suspect was produced.
Rao was brought to the city on Wednesday night by a police team, after a medical check-up in the state capital. He had surrendered before the police at the DGP office in Bengaluru early on Wednesday and confessed to having planted the bomb.
Earlier, Mangaluru police Commissioner P S Harsha said Rao had prepared in advance a definite plan before planting the IED in the airport premises. (PTI)
