The petition was mentioned before Acting Chief Justice Vipin Sanghi and Justice Navin Chawla today. Counsel for Ayyub prayed for early listing tomorrow morning since she has to travel abroad tomorrow.
The Court said that if it is filed before 11 am, it will be listed tomorrow.
Ayyub was stopped at the Mumbai airport on Tuesday from boarding a flight to London. This was based on a look out circular issued by the Enforcement Directorate against her in a money laundering case.
“I was stopped today at the Indian immigration while I was about to board my flight to London to deliver my speech on the intimidation of journalists with International Center for Journalists. I was to travel to Italy right after to deliver the keynote address at the journalism festival on the Indian democracy,” Ayyub had tweeted.
