Liquor baron Vijay Mallya will face a second wave of criminal charges connected to money laundering in India, his lawyer said at a London hearing without giving any details.
“They can present whatever they want, we will respond,” Mallya said to reporters in regard to the new charges after a short hearing that fixed a two-week extradition trial to start on December 4.
The 61-year-old was arrested in London April 18 on a warrant issued by Indian authorities accusing him of conspiring to defraud India’s IDBI Bank through a $1.4-billion loan to Kingfisher Airlines — a premium airline he founded in 2005
