Live LawThe Supreme Court has directed that the Highest Z+ Security Cover provided to billionaire businessman Mukesh Ambani and his family is not restricted to Mumbai, but be made available across India and also when they are traveling abroad. A Bench comprising Justice Krishna Murari and Justice Ahsanuddin Amanullah noted that when Mukesh Ambani and his family are within India, State of Maharashtra and the Ministry of Home Affairs are to ensure their security. The Bench passed the order in a Miscellaneous Application filed by one Bikash Saha in the Centre’s Special Leave Petition challenging Tripura High Court’s interim orders directing the the Ministry of Home Affairs to produce the original files regarding threat perception in relation to Mukesh Ambani, his wife Nita Ambani and their children Akash, Anant and Isha. In June, 2022, a vacation Bench of the Supreme Court comprising Justice Surya Kant and Justice JB Pardiwala had stayed the orders passed by the High Court seeking production of the files.
