Malik has been remanded to ED custody till March 3, in connection with Dawood Ibrahim's money laundering case. He was sent to ED custody for seven days by a court in Mumbai in connection with the case.
Earlier, ED had sought 14-day custody of the NCP leader from the court. He was arrested on Wednesday by the ED.
According to the sources, Malik was not cooperating during the questioning. Soon after his arrest, Malik said that he is not scared and will fight and win.
