Vijay Mallya’s staunch refusal to come back to India seems to have had a definite fallout in the apex court, with the Supreme Court expressing a certain amount of circumspection when it comes to parole applications..A bench of JS Khehar and Arun Mishra JJ rejected Ravikant Ruia’s petition seeking permission to allow Ruia to travel to London and Moscow, among other cities. The Essar Group promoter is currently facing trial in the 2G scam case..When senior counsel for the accused, Abhishek Manu Singhvi, assured the court that his client was prepared to give an undertaking, the bench remarked,.“We are sick and tired of such undertakings given by the counsels, and then your clients say, “We are not coming back. You can go to hell.”.Indirectly referring to the Vijay Mallya debacle, the court ventured so far as to remark that it had heard the very same contentions put across just as earnestly in a case where the accused was now refusing to come back to India..“Once bitten [twice shy], we are not going to grant any liberty to anyone anymore”.Special Public Prosecutor Anand Grover, representing the CBI, argued that Ruia was frequently filing such pleas, and that Ruia did not disclose all the the details regarding his travel plans.
