Update: 2016-03-19 00:14 GMT
Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Friday issued fresh summons to liquor baron Vijay Mallya to make a personal appearance before its investigating officer here on April 2 in connection with its money laundering probe in the over Rs 900 crore IDBI loan fraud case. The new summons came after the United Breweries (UB) group Chairman had on Thursday sought more time from the agency to present himself on a later date instead of the scheduled time for today. Official sources said the agency accepted his plea and gave Mallya the new date of April 2 to “join investigations in person.” The beleaguered businessman had informed the Investigating Officer (IO) of the case through email on Thursday that he would not be able to keep the  March 18 date  even as he sought fresh time next month in this regard in a email communication.
