The Sessions Court here has denied bail to all the 11 accused in the case of abduction of the manager of a home appliance company.
When the petition came up in court, the Principal District and Sessions Judge P. Velmurugan declined to grant bail.
The 11-member gang is alleged to have abducted V. Udayakumar (42) for ransom earlier this month.
Mr. Udayakumar is the AINRC party member and a manager of the Whirlpool unit in Thirubhuvanai .
His brother Rajkumar lodged a complaint with Villianur police that Udayakumar had been taken away to Chennai by three persons posing as Income Tax officials.
Police custody granted
In a related development earlier on Thursday, a magistrate court has remanded four of the accused to police custody for a period of three days.
