A sessions court in Chennai on Friday has extended the remand of DMK Minister V Senthil Balaji, who was arrested in connection with a money laundering case by the ED in June, till October 20.

First Additional Sessions Judge D Lingeshwaran, before whom Senthil Balaji was produced through video conferencing from Puzhal prison, extended his remand to judicial custody untill next Friday.

Balaji got arrested on June 14 by the ED in connection with the money laundering case linked to a cash-for-jobs scam when he was the transport minister during an earlier AIADMK regime.

Soon after his arrest, Balaji underwent a bypass surgery at a private hospital.

After the treatment, ED took him into its custody for interrogation and on completion of interrogation, he was sent to Judicial Custody by a local court, and thereafter his remand was extended.

As the remand period was over, he was produced before the court on Friday for extension of remand.
