A special PMLA court here has allowed former Maharashtra minister Nawab Malik, arrested in a money laundering case, to undergo a renal scan.

The court had last month also permitted NCP leader Nawab Malik to undergo the renal scan (a nuclear medicine test to see how well kidneys work), but it could not be conducted then as he was suffering from fever and other health issues. Special court judge R N Rokade on Tuesday allowed Malik's application seeking permission to undergo the scan. A copy of the order was made available on Wednesday.
