The lawyer of Vijay Mallya on Thursday told the Supreme Court that he was not receiving any communication from the fugitive businessman and sought to be discharged from the case as a counsel.
A Bench of Justices DY Chandrachud and Hima Kohli allowed the discharge of advocate EC Agrawala from the case and asked him to furnish the e-mail ID of the liquor baron along with his present residential address in the United Kingdom to the apex court registry.
“Counsel seeking discharge the case because in spite of communication from his end, no instruction is forthcoming,” the bench said and asked the lawyer to follow the process of discharge.
