The Bombay high court on Friday directed the Mumbai police commissioner to "immediately take steps to trace the whereabouts (of) and arrest" two builders, Rajen Dhruv and Hiren Dhruv of Orbit Ventures Developers, after they failed to surrender before the court. The court directed them to be taken into custody to serve six months' civil imprisonment.
The HC posted the matter next to July 25 for the police to give a status report.
Axis Finance had filed a contempt petition against Orbit Ventures Developers and their two directors, Rajen Dhruv and Hiren Dhruv, who reside in Bandra (W) and Khar (W).
Venkatesh Dhond, senior counsel with advocates Rashmin Khandekar and Nishit Dhruva for Axis, had argued how the builders had constantly sought time but never abided by their assurances of paying money due in installments in February and March.
