New Delhi: In the Antilia bomb scare case, startling claims/revelations continue to give new twist to the NIA investigation into the whole saga. In the latest incident, a CCTV video has emerged in which Mansukh Hiren was seen entering encounter cop Sachin Vaze’s Mercedes car. The CCTV footage is reportedly from CST junction near the police headquarters.
In the CCTV video, one could see black Mercedes stopping on the road and Mansukh Hiren reportedly walking across the road and then entering the car. Hiren was seen wearing a white shirt and black pants waiting for a truck to pass by so that he can enter Sachin Vaze’s car.
CCTV video dated February 17
The CCTV video reportedly dates back to February 17, almost a week before explosives were planted outside Antilia.
Other reports said that Hiren and Vaze had met before February 25, the day when a suspicious green Scorpio car with explosives was parked outside the residence of Mukesh Ambani.

UAPA against Vaze
The NIA has filed an application before a special Mumbai court, seeking to invoke the stringent Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) in the probe against Vaze and his alleged involvement.
Maha ATS told to hand over case to NIA
Meanwhile, a Sessions Court has directed the Maharashtra ATS to stop probe into Mansukh Hiren’s death and hand over the case to the NIA. The court’s order came on a plea by the Central agency which complained that the ATS is yet to hand over relevant documents despite it taking over the case on March 20.
