In connection with the money-laundering case brought against her by the Enforcement Directorate (ED), alleged journalist Rana Ayyub did not show up before the Ghaziabad Court.
The ED had submitted before the Supreme Court that donation fraud accused Rana Ayyub had used money sought for slum dwellers, COVID-19, and some work in Assam for “personal enjoyment, luxuries and pleasure”.
On Wednesday, January 25, 2023, the Supreme Court directed that the Ghaziabad Special Judge in Uttar Pradesh postpone the summons hearing for journalist Rana Ayyub that was set to take place on January 27 in a case involving money laundering. On January 31, a bench of Justices Krishna Murari and V. Ramasubramanian scheduled a detailed hearing for Ms. Ayyub's writ case.
Facing death threats for months, being locked in her own house for months, may seem like a privilege to Rana Ayyub, but for any sensible person, these are genuine grounds to grant a gun license to Nupur Sharma.
