New Delhi: BSP MP Dhananjay Singh, who is in jail with his wife in connection with the murder of their maid, was today remanded to one-day police custody by a Delhi court in another case of rape and criminal intimidation lodged against him.

Dhananjay, MP from Jaunpur constituency in Uttar Pradesh, was produced before Metropolitan Magistrate Babita Puniya on a production warrant issued for him in a case of allegedly repeatedly raping a 42-year-old woman, a railway employee, between 2005-09.

The Delhi Police arrested Dhananjay inside the courtroom in the fresh case and sought his two-day custody for his interrogation saying the MP is not cooperating with them in the investigation of the case.

Advocate SPM Tripathi, appearing for Dhananjay, opposed the police plea saying his client is cooperating in the probe and he has nothing more to tell the investigators.
