Delhi HC suspends LOC against Vikas Malu, enables him to join inquiry by GST intelligence
New Delhi [India], May 29 (ANI): The Delhi High Court has directed to suspend the Look Out Circular (LOC) opened against businessman Vikas Malu to enable him to join the inquiry by Directorate General of GST Intelligence (DGGI). He was summoned twice in September 2024 by the agency. On Wednesday, the High Court asked him to furnish a bond of Rs 3 crore within two days of his arrival from Dubai. He was issued a summons on 12.09.2024 and 24.09.2024 by the Senior Intelligence Officer, DGGI, Ghaziabad Regional Unit, Meerut Zonal Unit. The department submitted that despite summons being served, respondent did not join the inquiry and only informed to his lawyer over e-mail that he was out of India. Justice Ravinder Dudeja on Wednesday suspended the LOC opened against Vikas Malu, subject to furnishing a bond of Rs. 3 crore and a surety of a family member. 'In that view of the matter, subject to respondent (Malu) furnishing a bond of Rs 3 crore with one surety of any family member, LOC be kept in abeyance till 03.06.2024 to enable the respondent to appear before the investigating agency for joining the inquiry pursuant to summons of 12.09.2024 and 24.09.2024,' Justice Dudeja ordered on May 28. The matter has been listed for August 4, 2025 hearing. The high court was dealing with a petition moved by DGGI against the order passed by trial court on May 23, 2025 on his anticipatory bail application. The sessions court had directed the respondent to join the inquiry within five days and, thereafter, as and when called by the investigating officer. It was also directed that till the next date of hearing listed before the trial court on 03.06.2025, no coercive action shall be taken against the respondent and also directed that LOC shall remain suspended till the next date. Before the High Court, the counsel for DGGI submitted that the anticipatory bail application filed in Delhi in respect of the summons issued by DGGI, Ghaziabad, is not maintainable. Senior Counsel Vikas Pahwa appearing for the respondent Vikas Malu, on query by the court, responded that respondent could not appear before the Investigating Agency despite the order of 23.05.2025 passed by the Sessions Court because LOC was not suspended and respondent was unwell. He also submitted that respondent is still ready and willing to join the investigation in compliance of summons of 12.09.2024 and 24.09.2024. He is also ready to comply with the directions imposed by this Court on 07.11.2024, passed in another petition. Senior standing counsel Satish Aggarwala and Atul Tripathi appearing for the DGGI, under instructions, stated that department has no objection to the suspension of LOC subject to respondent joining the investigation and compliance of order of 07.11.2024. The High Court on 07.11.2024 in another petition directed Vikas Malu to join the investigation on 20.11.2024 at 12:00 PM and issued directions to keep the LOC in abeyance, subject to him furnishing a bond of Rs. 3 crore to the competent authority with one surety.

Qatar 2025 FIFA Volunteer Programme applications open
FIFA and the Local Organising Committee (LOC) of the FIFA U-17 World Cup Qatar 2025 and FIFA Arab Cup Qatar 2025 have launched the registration process for the Qatar 2025 FIFA Volunteer Programme. Organisers — speaking to media and community representatives at the 3-2-1 Qatar Olympic & Sports Museum — invited volunteers interested in supporting the two events in November and December to register their interest. Approximately 4,000 volunteers, across 30 roles, will be selected to support 20 functional areas including tournament and media operations, spectator services, accreditation, hospitality, and more. LOC CEO Jassim Al Jassim, said: 'Volunteers have been the heartbeat of all major tournaments we've organised over the last decade, playing a crucial role not only in event operations but also in sharing our rich culture and renowned hospitality with fans and guests. The upcoming FIFA Arab Cup and FIFA U-17 World Cup will be no exception, and carry forward the volunteering legacy left by the FIFA World Cup and AFC Asian Cup. 'We look forward to working with Qatar's dynamic volunteering movement to deliver unique experiences and stand-out tournaments later this year. We've no doubt it'll once again prove one of our most successful delivery partners.' 'I hold a special connection to this movement. I started my career in mega-sporting events as a volunteer. It's inspiring to see how this spirit and tradition continues to grow, and I've no doubt the volunteers will make these tournaments truly extraordinary,' added Al Jassim. LOC's Executive Director of Administration Haya Al Noaimi, said: 'We're pleased to launch yet another opportunity for Qatar's volunteering community to get involved in our delivery of two important tournaments in the country's events calendar. Over the years, we've built a dynamic and exciting volunteer base that's contributed to the country's growing culture of volunteerism, which extends to all sectors and events and acts as the backbone to every success achieved.' FIFA and the LOC are looking for passionate and enthusiastic volunteers to help make this year's events in Qatar an unforgettable experience. Volunteers play a key role at FIFA tournaments and events, not only in terms of their specific functions but also as ambassadors for the country that they represent. Applicants must be residents of Qatar, at least 18 years of age, have a good command of English (knowledge of additional languages such as Arabic is a bonus) and be available for the duration of the tournament they are selected for, including pre-event training sessions. Prior volunteering experience is not required. In addition, applicants must be passionate about teamwork and have a friendly and proactive attitude. Registration will be open for two weeks, and selection will begin in June. In-person interviews will take place at the Volunteer Recruitment Centre, located at Lusail Stadium. Volunteers with prior experience in FIFA events held in Qatar will be exempt from the interview stage. A single application will cover both events, and candidates can indicate their preferred option. Roles will be assigned to a single event due to overlapping schedules, and selection will be based on availability, profile matching, and operational needs. Volunteers will be provided with the following benefits: * Training to prepare for their roles * An official volunteer uniform * Meals provided during their shifts * Free public transportation to and from event venues * Limited-edition gifts and memorabilia * Opportunities to build friendships and develop new skills * Unforgettable memories from a once-in-a-lifetime experience Those interested can register here. --- Make sure to check out our social media to keep track of the latest content.
