Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) today grilled former Rajasthan Minister Mahipal Maderna’s wife Leela and two sons of MLA Malkhan Singh in connection with the Bhanwari Devi abduction case.

They are all being quizzed in Jaipur, CBI sources said.

Osian MLA Maderna is under judicial custody, while Luni MLA Malkhan Singh is skipping questioning for the past several days despite repeated summons.

The probe agency may seek his arrest warrant on Monday.

The agency has questioned Mr. Singh’s sons a few times to know the whereabouts of their father, who had sought exemption from questioning on heath grounds till last Friday by moving an application in the court, but he did not appear before the CBI team so far for another round of questioning.

Bhanwari, 36, posted as an auxiliary nurse at a sub-centre in Jaliwada village, is missing since September one.
