What happened, for context

On September 22, 2026, the Bombay High Court warned businessman Vijay Mallya against posting court documents on social media during pending proceedings related to money laundering allegations. Justice Milind Jadhav issued the warning after the Enforcement Directorate reported that Mallya had uploaded the agency's affidavit on social media on September 8, before the court had formally considered it. The court adjourned the matter to October 13 and directed the State Bank of India to file an affidavit.
