TIL Desk/Business/New Delhi/ The hearing on the issue of embattled Indian tycoon Vijay Mallya’s extradition from the UK will be heard on Tuesday.
Britain’s Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) will be arguing on behalf of the Indian authorities when the fugitive businessman’s extradition case comes up for hearing at Westminster Magistrates’ Court today.
Mallya, the 61-year-old chief of the erstwhile Kingfisher Airlines who owes over Rs 9,000 crore to various Indian banks, has been living in self-imposed exile in Britain since March last year.
He was arrested by Scotland Yard last month on fraud allegations, triggering an official extradition process in the British courts.
