On Monday, Sayed, lawyer of Malik told a single bench of Justice P D Naik that they were seeking to amend the petition and change the June 10 date to June 20
Refusing to grant relief to jailed Maharashtra minister Nawab Malik who sought to be released for a day on June 20 to cast his vote in the Maharashtra Legislative Council elections on June 20, the Bombay High Court has asked him to file a fresh petition.
Malik was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on February 23 this year in connection with a money laundering probe linked to the activities of fugitive underworld don Dawood Ibrahim and his aides. His party colleague Deshmukh was arrested in November 2021 by the ED on money laundering charges.
