Hearing on Nawab Malik’s bail plea from next week
The bail plea of Nawab Malik, who is under arrest in connection with allegations of financial misappropriation related to the property of the notorious Dawood Ibrahim in Mumbai, will be heard from next week.
Malik has demanded that this petition should be heard on merit as well as grant of bail on medical grounds. But does Malik fall under the concept of a sick person in the Financial Misappropriation Act? The court had ordered Malik’s lawyers during the previous hearing to convince him that his condition is really critical by asking such a question. The High Court on Friday accepted that Malik’s condition is serious.
