Suspended Mumbai Police officer Sachin Vaze on Thursday was produced before Special National Investigation Agency (NIA) Court. National Investigation Agency has invoked the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act against the suspended Mumbai Police officer in connection with the Antilia bomb scare case.

Under UAPA, the maximum police custody can be of 30 days. The investigating agency can get an extension of 90 days to file a charge sheet (additional to the usual 90 days). Securing bail will be much more tough in comparison with other sections.

The NIA has told the Special NIA court that Mansukh Hiran murder case is also connected so that will be investigated with this case. 

The arrested Assistant Police Inspector Sachin Vaze, whose name came up in Mansukh Hiran's death case allegedly used a fake Aadhar card while booking a room in a 5-star hotel in Mumbai, said NIA sources.

According to NIA sources, Vaze booked a room in a 5-star hotel in Mumbai between February 16 to 20. He is also seen carrying fiv bags in the hotel in CCTV footage of the hotel.

Vaze, Assistant Police Inspector in the Crime Intelligence Unit (CIU) was arrested in connection with the investigation into the recovery of explosives from a car parked near Mukesh Ambani's house in Mumbai on February 25.
