AN INDIAN court has remanded Jet Airways founder Naresh Goyal to 14-day judicial custody in a money laundering case.

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) arrested Goyal on September 1 under under money laundering laws following a long session of questioning.

The 74-year-old businessman was produced before a Mumbai court at the end of his ED remand on Thursday (14).

The money laundering case stems from a first information report (FIR) of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) against Jet Airways, Goyal, his wife Anita and some former company executives of the now grounded private airline in connection with the fraud.

The FIR was registered on the state-owned Canara Bank's complaint which alleged that it sanctioned credit limits and loans to Jet Airways (India) Ltd to the tune of Rs 8.48 billion (£82m) of which Rs 5.38 bn (£52m) was outstanding.

Paying to park by app? Hidden fees can push UK parking costs up by 40%

  • App service fees can increase some parking bills by up to 40 per cent.
  • Charges tested ranged from 10p to 30p, with some fees revealed only at checkout.
  • Councils and app providers differ over who is responsible for making extra costs clear.

UK drivers are being urged to check the final price when paying for parking through mobile apps, after tests found that additional service fees can push some bills up by as much as 40 per cent.

Councils across England, including several in London, have removed traditional pay-and-display machines or increasingly encouraged motorists to use apps. The services can make payments more convenient, but they may also add charges that are not included in the advertised parking tariff.
