New Delhi: Liquor baron Vijay Mallya can be extradited to India in the coming days “anytime” as all the “legal process” has been completed, top sources in the government said on Wednesday.

The development comes in the wake of Mallya losing his appeal in the UK top court on May 14 against his extradition to India on charges of fraud and money laundering related to unrecovered loans to his now-defunct Kingfisher Airlines.

Mallya will be extradited to India anytime in the coming days, said a source in the Enforcement Department. However, he remained tight-lipped on the date of the extradition.

He said, “As he has lost his appeal in the UK Supreme Court there, we have completed all the legal process for his extradition.”

The teams of CBI and the ED are already working on the process of extradition to India.
