The city police on Friday took ARSS Infrastructure Projects ltd chairman Subhas Agarwal on a three-day remand in connection with the attack on a Rail Vikas Nigam ltd (RVNl) Joint General Manager (JGM) here last week.

A local court, where the ARSS chief was produced, granted the remand to the police as against the demand of a five-day remand. According to sources, the police investigation is from the angle of involvement of contract killers in the shootout at the RVNl officer. Two persons have already been detained for questioning. On May 30, three unidentified bike-borne miscreants had opened three rounds of fire at RVNl JGM Ajoy Kumar while he was going home at Shree Vihar. He, however, escaped unhurt as the bullets missed him.
