Hyderabad court issues non-bailable warrant against Vijay Mallya, directs cops to produce him before April 13

New Delhi: A Hyderabad Court has issued non-bailable warrants against Vijay Mallya and Chief Financial Officer of Kingfisher Airlines A Raghunath . In the warrants, issued on March 10, the 14th Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate GS Ramesh Kumar ordered police to produce them before the court on April 13 while issuing warrants.

Meanwhile, liquor baron Vijay Mallya, who is currently in the United Kingdom and is being sought out in India over charges of money laundering, asserted on Sunday that all the efforts by the media trying who were to hunt him down were useless as he was not going to speak to them in any case.

"I am being hunted down by media in UK. Sadly they did not look in the obvious place. I will not speak to media so don`t waste your efforts," Mallya tweeted.

Meanwhile, after writing to Prime Minister Narendra Modi seeking his intervention in safeguarding their interest, employees of Vijay Mallya`s now defunct Kingfisher Airlines are set to file a case in the Supreme Court in order to get their dues from the company.

The employees are in touch with senior lawyer MV Kini to put their case before the apex court and they have been assured by him that their case will be fought pro bono (for free), given their financial condition.

The government had earlier told the Supreme Court that Mallya had left India on March 2 following which the bench issued notice to him and sought his response within two weeks on pleas filed by a consortium of banks seeking direction for freezing his passport and his presence before the apex court.

In a series of tweets on Friday, Mallya said that he was not an absconder and was not fleeing from India adding that he firmly believes the law of the land.

"I am an international businessman. I travel to and from India frequently. I did not flee from India and neither am I an absconder. Rubbish. As an Indian MP I fully respect and will comply with the law of the land. Our judicial system is sound and respected. But no trial by media," Mallya said on twitter.

"News reports that I must declare my assets. Does that mean that Banks did not know my assets or look at my Parliamentary disclosures?" he asked.Mallya further said that `once a media witch hunt starts, it escalates into a raging fire where truth and facts are burnt to ashes`.
