A Delhi Court extended interim protection granted to Manoj Arora, a close aide of Robert Vadra, till February 16 in an alleged money laundering case filed against him.
Arora's interim protection was to end today.
On January 11, the Patiala House Court had granted interim protection from arrest to Arora. It had also ordered Arora to appear before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and join the investigation.
The ED had moved the Delhi Court seeking issuance of an open-ended non-bailable warrant against Arora.
In its plea, the ED claimed that Arora arranged funds for Vadra's undeclared assets overseas. It further alleged that proceeds of the crime were used to channelise funds from the United Arab Emirates.
The ED had also sought a red corner notice against Arora to prevent him from fleeing India.
