New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Friday adjourned till August 13 the hearing on a petition filed by fugitive liquor baron Vijay Mallya seeking a stay on confiscation of properties owned by him and his relatives.
A bench headed by Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi deferred the matter after being informed that Mallya’s lawyer Fali S Nariman was not well.
In his plea, the embattled businessman has submitted that no properties other than those related to Kingfisher Airlines, which is facing cases of alleged irregularities, should be attached.
On July 11, the Bombay High Court had dismissed Mallya’s petition seeking a stay on the procedure for the confiscation of his properties by a government agency.
