ED seeks dismissal of Nawab Malik's plea in money laundering case, says it seeks to derail probe

India Today  

Refuting allegations of illegal detention, the Enforcement Directorate has sought that Maharashtra cabinet minister Nawab Malik's habeas corpus petition be dismissed. The reply stated that Nawab Malik has sought to combine multiple purported causes of action in his plea seeking to challenge the investigating agency's arrest, remand and custody. The 13-page reply filed by ED Assistant Director Niraj Kumar stated that Malik's petition seeks to combine three distinct purported causes of action -- habeas corpus, quashing, and release/ bail, which is a clear misjoinder of causes of action. The reply adds that habeas corpus is not maintainable as Malik's arrest is in accordance with the Prevention of Money Laundering Act and the subsequent remand of custody is valid.
