British Home Secretary Sajid Javid has signed the order for the extradition of Vijay Mallya to India. Mallya’s legal team has two weeks to lodge an appeal.
“On 3 February, the Secretary of State, having carefully considered all relevant matters, signed the order for Vijay Mallya’s extradition to India,” the British Home Office said in a statement. “Vijay Mallya is accused in India of conspiracy to defraud, making false representations and money laundering offenses.”
Anand Doobay, lawyer for Vijay Mallya, said that he would “file an application for permission to appeal.”
An appeal can only be lodged after the signing of the order by the minister.
