The Delhi High Court has refused to stay its single-judge bench order upholding the Centre's decision to forfeit the properties of fugitive underworld don Dawood Ibrahim's mother Amina Bi and his sister Hasina Ibrahim Parker. Refusing to grant any interim stay on the government's order, a division bench comprising Chief Justice Dipak Misra and Justice Sanjiv Khanna fixed August 16 to hear their plea. Justice Rajiv Sahai Endlaw earlier on July 15 had rejected the joint plea of Dawood's mother and sister against the Centre's order to confiscate their properties in Mumbai by August 14.
