Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's relative Vinay Bansal, arrested by Anti-Corruption Bureau in connection with the PWD scam, was today sent to one-day judicial custody by a Delhi court.

Duty Metropolitian Magistrate Suri Mishra denied the ACB's application for three-day police remand saying Bansal is not medically fit.

The order came after Bansal, who was arrested this morning by the ACB, fainted during arguments when he was was produced before the court. He was rushed to Aruna Asaf Ali Government Hospital.

Bansal is Kejriwal's nephew.

Three FIRs, including one against a company run by the chief minister's brother-in-law Surender Bansal, were registered by the ACB in this case on May 9 last year.

Three companies, including Renu Constructions (owned by Bansal, Kamal Singh and Pawan Kumar), were included in the FIRs.  -- PTI
