NEW DELHI/BENGALURU: A day after being barred from boarding a flight to the US, Amnesty International India’s former head Aakar Patel on Thursday got relief from a Delhi court that directed the CBI to immediately revoke the lookout circular against him.
The court also asked the CBI director to make a written apology, acknowledging the “lapse” in putting Patel on the exit control list “merely on the basis of apprehensions arising out of the whims and fancies of the investigating agency”.
