Allegations on Vijay Mallya
Mallya has been accused of not repaying more than Rs 9,000 crore debt to Indian banks that were used for Kingfisher Airlines. Since 2016, he has been living in the United Kingdom and is fighting being sent back to India. Although he has lost several legal cases, including a UK court decision in 2018 that supported his extradition, Mallya is still challenging his return to India. He claims he will not be treated fairly and that the media has unfairly judged him.
