On April 15, after the Enforcement Directorate recommendation, the Ministry of External Affairs had suspended Mallya's passport. 

Last week, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) issued its second attachment order for assets worth Rs 6,630 crore against beleagured businessman as it seized his farmhouse, flats and fixed deposits (FDs) in connection with its money laundering case against him and his associates.

Following to ED's move, the chief metropolitan magistrate court in Mumbai issued a non-bailable arrest warrant against Mallya and now defunct Kingfisher Airlines Ltd chief executive Sanjay Agarwal. 

Mallya owes over Rs 6000 crore plus interest to a consortium of 17 lenders, led by State Bank of India.
