KOCHI: The customs filed a plea in the NIA court to interrogate Swapna Suresha and Sandeep Nair in the gold smuggling case. The two are now in custody of NIA. The customs want to question them again to get more clarity on their revelations while questioning them earlier.

Meantime, the NIA has hinted that they have obtained crucial details in the evidence collected with Sarith after bringing him to the capital city yesterday. Evidence was collected from the places where the gold was handed over and places where documents were forged. The NIA will check whether these were forged with the consent of the consulate officials. Gunman Jayaghosh is likely to be questioned today. He is suspected to have a role in the case. He was suspended for violating service rules.
