LONDON: The Indian government has submitted the requisite “opening note” and paperwork related to Vijay Mallya’s extradition case to the liquor baron’s legal team within the UK court deadline, official sources said. Chief magistrate Emma Louise Arbuthnot, presiding at Westminster magistrates’ court in London at the last hearing in the case on July 6, had set July 31 as the deadline for the Indian side — represented by the Crown Prosecution Service — to provide Mallya’s defence team with a detailed opening note.
