ED move to attach Sun TV assets stayed by SC

The Supreme Court on Friday stayed the Enforcement Directorate’s attachment proceedings before the Adjudicating Authority under the money laundering law against Sun TV assets in connection with the Aircel-Maxis case.

A Bench led by Chief Justice of India H.L. Dattu, however, said the provisional attachment order issued by the ED would stay alive even if the 180-day period for confirming the attachment order was over.
