Jaysukh Patel, the Managing Director of the Oreva group -- the firm hired for the maintenance and repair of the bridge in Gujarat's Morbi which collapsed in October, killing 135 people -- surrendered at a local court today. A warrant for his arrest was out last week after he was named prime accused in the case. Patel has been missing since the incident and had filed an appeal for bail to evade arrest. The court has sent him to jail for tonight. The police will seek his custody in court tomorrow.
