Union minister <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-news/article/never-thought-shiv-sena-would-arrest-my-husband-narayan-rane-wife-nilam--23189994">Narayan Rane</a> on Monday failed to appear at the office of the superintendent of police here in Raigad district of <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-news/article/fuel-prices-up-due-to-higher-import-cost-of-crude-oil-narayan-rane-23189744">Maharashtra</a> as directed by a court earlier due to ill health, his lawyer said.
Rane's lawyer Sandesh Chikne appeared in the office of the local crime branch inspector Dayanand Gavde on behalf of Rane. He told the police that Rane couldn't come as he was not feeling well.
In the morning, a posse of police personnel was deployed near the office of the superintendent of police in anticipation of the arrival of Rane, Gavde said, adding the situation is normal now.
Chikne was accompanied by local leaders of the BJP.
Rane was arrested on Tuesday afternoon from the Ratnagiri district following his remarks that he would have slapped Chief Minister Thackeray for what he claimed as the latter's ignorance of the year of India's independence.
