Supreme Court issues fresh notices to Anil Ambani 'PIL Case'

The Supreme Court on Friday issued fresh notices to Anil Ambani and the Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group (ADAG) on a PIL seeking a court-monitored probe into alleged massive banking and corporate fraud involving the firm and its group companies.

The top court asked the CBI and the Enforcement Directorate, represented by Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, to file status reports in sealed cover within ten days on their ongoing probes into the alleged fraud.

A bench



comprising Chief Justice Surya Kant and Justice Joymalya Bagchi took note of the fact that Anil Ambani and the ADAG had already been served with notices of the PIL filed by petitioner and former Union secretary E A S Sarma.

On November 18 last year, the bench issued notices to the Centre, CBI, ED, Anil Ambani and ADAG on the PIL.

The bench said it was granting the last opportunity to Anil Ambani and the ADAG to appear and file their responses in the case.
