Roose Avenue court adjourned decision on Naresh Palyan's custody pending voice sampling

AAP MLA Naresh Balyan was arrested on Saturday. He was arrested in an extortion case registered last year. The police who arrested him have now produced him in Rose Avenue Court. There, 5 days custody has been requested in the court. Currently, the court has postponed the custody order. The court will issue an order shortly. At the same time, the court will later hear the Delhi Police's plea seeking the voice sample of Naresh Balyan. A day after the arrest, Palyan's lawyer said that the audio was in the public domain for a year and a half from 2023, but the Delhi Police did not feel the need to make an arrest during this period. He was arrested suddenly on Saturday. The lawyer added, “I have the right to remain silent and I have chosen that.” At the same time, responding to TV9's questions, Naresh Balyan said that he was arrested because of the election. His arrest was completely wrong. The lawyer said that the remand paper stated that Naresh Palyan was summoned for questioning by the Crime Branch but he did not respond. That is why he was arrested, but this cannot be the basis. I have the right to remain silent. The time of arrest is incorrect. Look at the case of Arvind Kejriwal. The prosecutor said that no written proof of arrest was produced in the case. Copy paste the arrest memo. You see. This arrest is completely wrong. On the other hand, Delhi Police sought permission from the court to take Naresh Balyan's voice sample. Advocate Naresh Balyan's lawyer, we challenge the arrest and demand his immediate release. Audio clips are cited. He has been on social media since 2023. Did the Delhi Police position statement not say where the audio came from? Know who put it. My client was not informed about the reasons for the arrest. Whereas as per Supreme Court order written reasons must be given. The maximum sentence for this offense is 7 years. No notice was served on Naresh Balyan. Just called yesterday and was told to arrest him. This is not a sufficient basis. The Delhi Police has asked for 5 days custody of Palyan who was produced in the court today. Before the court, the Delhi Police registered a case on July 5, 2023, in which the complainant claimed that Guru Charan had received a call asking him to pay, otherwise he would face the same fate as the Mathiala man. Investigation is going on in this regard. We have the audio of the conversation. Yesterday we called for inquiry but he did not cooperate.
