Hyderabad: Attapur police on Friday sought a fresh seven-day custody of trainee IPS officer M. Uday Krishna Reddy, informing the Upparpally court that investigators needed additional time to verify crucial disclosures made by the accused.
Krishna Reddy, who is facing allegations of sexually assaulting a colleague at the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy (SVPNPA), was produced before the magistrate after completion of his two-day police custody.
Police said Krishna Reddy had remained non-cooperative and evasive, or just said he did not remember the incidents.
After hearing preliminary submissions from both sides, the court posted detailed arguments on the custody plea to Tuesday.
During Friday's proceedings, counsel for Krishna Reddy strongly opposed the police plea for another week of custody.
