The Delhi High Court has closed proceedings on actor Celina Jaitly's petition regarding her brother Vikrant Jaitly's detention in the UAE.
Justice Purushaindra Kumar Kaurav observed that the Indian Embassy in Abu Dhabi has met Vikrant Jaitly nine times since his arrest and that consular access has been granted.
The court also noted that Vikrant Jaitly has conveyed that decisions on his legal representation should be made by his wife, not his sister.
The high court was hearing a petition by Celina Jaitly seeking effective legal representation for her brother, who was detained in the UAE since September 6, 2024.
The court disposed of the writ petition, asking the Centre to continue providing legal assistance to Vikrant Jaitly and ensuring his well-being.
