POLICE have extended the bail of the owner of a top Malvern private school for a second time.

Hekmat Kaveh was arrested on suspicion of possessing Class A drugs at Cheltenham Racecourse on Wednesday, October 11, after police found a package in his car.

The 55-year-old, who owns Abbey College, strenuously denies any wrongdoing.

He was due to answer bail at Cheltenham Police Station yesterday (17), but officers have extended it until today (18) while their investigations continue.
