Woman trespassing into ISRO remanded to police custody

September 25, 2012 16:49 IST
A local court on Tuesday remanded the woman -- who was arrested for trespassing into the ISRO premises -- to four days police custody, said the police.

Buela N Sam was produced before the 10th Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Court and remanded to police custody.

"We sought police custody to interrogate her," they said.

The 41-year-old woman from Ahmedabad created a scare after she breached security to gain entry into the headquarters of ISRO after using a fake identity card, before being arrested.

Using a fake identity card, Buela stayed at the ISRO Satellite Centre guest house at Jeevanbheema Nagar in Bangalore for two days.

On September 21, she also gained entry into the high-security Anthariksh Bhavan -- the  ISRO headquarter.

ISRO sources said she may not have swiped her card to enter as required and may have just waved her card to the Central Industrial Security Force personnel, who apparently allowed her in around 11 am on September 21.

She roamed around in the building premises for a couple of hours before some ISRO staffers reported the matter to security.

She was subsequently arrested and remanded to judicial custody till October 6.
