The Bombay High Court on Tuesday granted the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) time till Friday to file its reply to the plea of former ICICI Bank Chief Executive Officer and MD Chanda Kochhar and her businessman-husband Deepak Kochhar, challenging their arrest in an alleged loan fraud case.

The Kochhar couple has moved the HC seeking to quash their remand order, calling their arrest “illegal”. Seeking their release from jail, they have also submitted that their son is getting married later this month and invitations have already been sent out to guests.
