NEW DELHI: Supreme Court judge Justice R F Nariman Monday recused himself from hearing a plea of fugitive businessman Vijay Mallya against a Karnataka High Court directing him to pay Rs 3,101 crore to a consortium of banks.
A bench of Justices Nariman and S Ravindra Bhat observed that Mallya has not deposited a single penny to the banks so far.
Justice Nariman, however, refused to hear the matter and directed that it be listed before another bench of the apex court.
