Malaika was called because of the hotel case from 2012, but she did not show up.After years of ongoing legal processes, a significant development has brought the issue back into the spotlight. On March 15, 2025, the court issued a bailable warrant against Malaika. After they did not show up for court, her sister Amrita Arora was also given a warrant. But on March 29, 2025, Amrita gave a deposition as a witness.
A legal document known as a bailable warrant permits an individual to be arrested with the understanding that they may be freed upon posting bail. This implies that the person can avoid incarceration while the arrest warrant is in effect by offering a financial surety, guaranteeing their appearance in court for subsequent hearings. The warrant’s bailable character indicates that Malaika Arora will not be arrested anytime soon unless she disregards additional court orders or does not show up for the scheduled hearings.
A Rs 5000 bailable warrant was reissued by the court since she did not attend the sessions. Additionally, the deadline for submitting the warrant report is April 29, 2025.
