The Crime Branch, which is probing the kidnapping case of Laila and her family, had yesterday got the permission from Kishtwar court of Jammu to bring Tak to Mumbai.

Tak would be produced before the Esplanade court in south Mumbai tomorrow.

Additional Commissioner of Police (Crime) Niket Kaushik confirmed the development.

The forest contractor, arrested by Jammu and Kashmir police, had reportedly told the interrogators that Laila and others had been shot dead in Maharashtra last year.

However, the starlet and her family - mother Shelina, elder sister Hazmina, twin siblings Zara and Imran and another relative- had gone missing from here in February last year.

A case of kidnapping was registered at the Oshiwara police station here yesterday, on the complaint of her father Nadir Patel.
