SC junks Vijay Mallya's plea challenging proceedings to declare him a fugitive
The prosecuting agency has the power to confiscate his property, once a person is declared a fugitive economic offender under the provisions of the Act. Mallya was declared a fugitive under the Act in January 2019, by a Mumbai special court.
On November 3 last year, in another matter, Mallya's counsel had told the apex court he has been incommunicado for a long time and requested the court to discharge him from representing Mallya in the matter. (Image:Pixabay )
