AgustaWestland: Non-bailable warrant issued against Saudi businessman

New Delhi, May 4 (IANS): A Delhi court on Saturday issued an open-ended non-bailable warrant against a Saudi Arabia-based businessman in connection with the Rs 3,600-crore AgustaWestland VVIP chopper deal case.

Special Judge Arvind Kumar allowed the Enforcement Directorate's (EC) plea seeking issuing of the open-ended non-bailable warrant against Omar Al Balsharaf.

The ED told the court that it issued Balsharaf multiple summons to join the probe, but neither did he appear before it, nor provide it the information sought of him.

According to the agency, Balsharaf's questioning was required to unearth the conspiracy related to some suspected transactions.

The ED said its investigation revealed that Interstellar Technologies Ltd Mauritius transferred $5,303,471 to the account of Rawasi Al Khaleej General Trading LLC, Dubai, but the amount was maintained under the ledger head Balsharaf.

This transaction raised many questions and it needs clarification, the agency told the court.

The ED said that Balsharaf was evading the process of law and therefore a non-bailable warrant should be issued against him to secure his presence immediately.

    Sounds funny on issuing non bailable warrant against a foreign national when our own fugitives are still at large mocking us from foreign soil enjoying royal life. Everything happening during polling time looks a preplanned strategy for polarize vote.

    What about the Enforcement Directorate extradition for PM Modi's Bhai Mehul Choksi and 'Chota Modi' who looted $2 Billion from public sector banks under the watchful eyes of 'Chowkidar'?

    Is any proceeding against Gautam Adani niece married to the son and founder of winsome diamond Jatin Mehta who settled in Caribean?

    Omar Al Balsharaf, a Saudi Arabia-based businessman, is most likely a Saudi citizen.

    India's laws, and the non-bailable warrant, do not apply to the Saudi citizens.

    I am amazed to note that the CBI is not aware of this!

    If indeed a foreign citizen is required at an Indian court, the proper extradition procedures (if they exist between the two countries) need to be applied.

    The Indian court is possibly under Narendra's pressure.
