The UK High Court today allowed embattled liquor tycoon Vijay Mallya to appeal at least on one of the five grounds against his extradition order signed off by the UK home secretary to face alleged fraud and money laundering charges in India.
A two-member bench of the Royal Courts of Justice comprising Justices George Leggatt and Andrew Popplewell made the conclusion after hearing the arguments. Representatives from the Indian High Commission in London were present in court to observe the proceedings.
