Black Warrant shows the horrors of Tihar Jail, but subtly
The latest Hindi prison drama, Black Warrant, in the form of a Netflix series, created by Vikramaditya Motwane and Satyanshu Singh, may have a smattering of all that we have seen in Bandini.
The Supreme Court on Wednesday told Jaypee Associates to deposit Rs 125 crore as directed failing which it would be held in contempt of court and could land in Tihar Jail.
The amount is part of the Rs 2,000 crore that the top court had directed Jaypee Associates to deposit with its registry to pay the home buyers of Jaypee Infratech seeking a refund of their money.

A bench of Chief Justice Dipak Misra, Justice A.M. Khanwilkar and Justice D.Y. Chandrachud also directed Jaypee Associates to file an affidavit stating all the housing projects they were developing.
The court said that it would only at a later stage see an application by the Reserve Bank of India seeking the top court’s nod for initiating proceedings under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) against Jaypee Associates.
