Police said they would again file a plea in the court tomorrow for further custody of Bitty as they planned to take him to Odisha for taking further evidence to confirm his identity.
A police team which went to Odisha last week had questioned Bitty's father and former Odisha DGP B B Mohanty, who identified his son through the photographs shown to him.
Another team which went to Puttaparthi in Andhra Pradesh had also collected evidences of forgery from the documents they got from the flat where Bitti was staying before he moved in to Kerala.
After fleeing jail in Rajasthan, Bitti had spent a few months in Puttaparthi, where he was alleged to have forged documents using which he enrolled as student in a private institution in Kannur and later obtained the bank job.
