A court in nearby Tirupur today extended by 15 days the judicial custody of a Maoist couple, who were lodged in the Central Jail here, in connection with a case of procuring SIM cards using forged documents.
Roopesh and Shyna were taken to Tirupur amid tight security this morning and produced before the principal district and sessions court, Tirupur where judge Alamelu Natarajan, extended their remand.
Both were brought back and lodged in the jail here.
The Maoists had purchased SIM cards by forging documents, including ration cards while they were in Karumathampatti and Avanashi and a case was registered against them.
The couple, who were arrested in May last year, along with three others in Karumathampatti, are facing various cases in Tamil Nadu and Kerala.
