Indian liquor baron Vijay Mallya nabbed in London: HumSub.TV: The Scotland Yard on Tuesday arrested absconding Indian liquor baron Vijay Mallya in London, local media reported.
He was produced before the Westminster Magistrates’ Court today and was later granted bail.
The court proceedings, however, will continue in the extradition case.
Confirming his arrest, the Metropolitan Police issued a statement that Mallya, 61, was arrested on “behalf of the Indian authorities in relation to accusations of fraud”.
The statement added that he was taken into custody after attending a central London police station. The Ministry of Home Affairs immediately directed the CBI and ED to apply for his extradition in IDBI bank loan fraud case.
Soon after his release Mallya mocked the Indian media for hyping his arrest.
“Usual Indian media hype. Extradition hearing in Court started today as expected,” he tweeted.
Speaking to reporters in India, Santosh Gangwar, MoS Finance, asserted that Mallya would be brought back to the country.
“Vijay Mallya will be brought back to India, due process of law will be followed,” he said.
Mallya is wanted in cases related to several economic offences, including defaulting on bank loans worth crores of rupees. His now-defunct Kingfisher Airlines owes over Rs 9,000 crore to state-owned and private banks.
