As per ANI editor Smita Prakash Arnab went in for the interrogation at 9.20 AM in the morning and only came out briefly for a couple of minutes before going in. He did not meet any of his colleagues during the brief break.
The Mumbai police is interrogating Arnab over a case filed by the Maharashtra Congress Minister Nitin Raut.
The Republic TV had reported yesterday (27 April) that the Mumbai police had sent Arnab two notices within a span of 12 hours seeking to immediately interrogate him over his comments against Sonia Gandhi.
This follows multiple cases by Congress functionaries over his comments criticising Sonia Gandhi on Palghar lynching of Sadhus.
Earlier, the Supreme Court had directed that all the charges against Arnab would be investigated via a single FIR in Mumbai.

The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
