Non-bailable warrant issued against Digvijaya Singh in defamation case

A Hyderabad court on Friday issued a non-bailable warrant against senior Congress leader Digvijaya Singh for not appearing before it in a criminal defamation case.

Speaking to ANI over the phone, Advocate Asim who filed the petition said, “Today 8th Additional Chief Metropolitan Court, Nampally issued a non-bailable warrant against Digvijaya Singh for not appearing before the
