The Delhi Police had sought Bharti's judicial custody for 14 days.


Bharti's lawyer, however, urged the court to send him to one day judicial custody, while also requesting that the jail authorities be directed to take him to the Supreme Court for the hearing on Monday.


Bharti, who was brought back to the national capital by the Delhi Police on Saturday, has so far rubbished all the allegations levelled against him.
