SFIO probe into Kerala CM’s daughter’s firm is legal and irrevocable: Karnataka High Court
Justice M Nagaprasanna, who pronounced the verdict on the petition on Friday, said that a copy of the order would be released on February 17.
In a major blow for Vijay Mallya, the Karnataka High Court on Friday issued a bailable warrant against the beleaguered businessman for contempt of court.
The development comes in the wake of India's market regulator, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) barring Mallya and six officials of the USL from trading in the securities market with immediate effect.
They were "restrained from accessing the securities market and prohibited from buying, selling or otherwise dealing in securities in any manner whatsoever, either directly or indirectly" by Sebi.
