In a major setback to Indian business tycoon, Indian Supreme Court has issued non bailable arrest warrant against Sahara group chief Subrata Roy.<\/h1>\n

New Delhi, Feb 26\/Nationalturk \u2013 Indian Supreme Court Wednesday issued non bailable arrest warrant against country\u2019s business tycoon and Sahara group chief Subrata Roy.<\/p>\n

Sahara group chief Subrata Roy was scheduled to appear before the Supreme Court today over non-refund of Rs. 19,000 crore by two Sahara companies to millions of investors in the country.<\/p>\n

Roy had yesterday approached the Apex Court seeking exemption from personal appearance in the court today. However, the court had rejected his plea and ordered him to appear before the court today.<\/p>\n

” Roy’s mother is ill and as such he could not appear in the court as he was with his mother,\u201d his lawyer told the court, which, however, rejected this plea.<\/p>\n

\u2018The arms of court are very long\u2019<\/h2>\n

Disturbed over non appearance of the Sahara chief in the court, Supreme Court said, “For last two years, we granted exemption to him from personal appearance but not now. The arms of this court are very long.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Apex Court issued non bailable warrant against Roy. \u00a0He has not appeared even today and we are issuing non bailable warrant returnable for March 4,” Supreme Court bench comprising justices K S Radhakrishnan and J S Khehar said.<\/p>\n

The Apex Court has already barred Roy from travelling abroad.<\/p>\n
