New Delhi, Apr 23 (UNI) A Delhi Court on Wednesday issued a non bailable warrant against Medha Patkar for infringing the court order by not furnishing the one-year probation bond and also not depositing the fine of Rs 1 lakh in a defamation case filed by Delhi Lieutenant Govenor Vinay Kumar Saxena.
Additional Sessions Judge (ASJ) Vishal Singh said, "Instead of appearing before the Court and to comply with the order on sentence dated 08/04/2025, the convict is absent and deliberately failed to comply with the order on sentence and to avail of the benefit of probation subject to furnishing of the compensation amount".
The court further said, "The intention of convict Medha Patkar is apparent that she is deliberately violating the Court order; she is avoiding to appear before the Court and also avoiding to accept the terms of sentence passed against her. There is no order of suspension of sentence passed by this Court on 08/04/2025".
