The woman, an alleged associate of suspended assistant police inspector Waze, was questioned by the NIA on Friday, sources said.

The probe agency had on Thursday searched a flat in Mira Road area which was in the woman’s possession, they said.

The NIA suspects she accompanied Waze to a city-based hotel on February 16, before the explosives-laden SUV was found near Ambani’s residence ‘Antilia’ in Mumbai on February 25, the sources said.

The NIA had earlier seized eight high-end vehicles used by Waze, who was arrested in the case last month.

The NIA is also conducting a probe into the death of Thane businessman Mansukh Hiran, who was in possession of the SUV before it was found with explosives near Ambani’s house.

Hiran was found dead in a creek in Thane on March 5.
