Moreover, the fact thatINR 2,665.28 million was received by Mallya from a United Kingdom-based company Diageo PLC was not disclosed before the court here, Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi, appearing for the banks, alleged.
Taking note of the allegation, the bench asked the counsel for Mallya to respond to the AG’s query whether “he truthfully disclosed his assets or not”.
It also wanted to know as to whether by transferring INR 2,665.28 million to his children, he violated the Karnataka High Court order in this regard or not.
