"Since the applicant (Salman) is ready to abide by the conditions, his application deserves to be allowed," the High Court said. "Salman shall furnish his travel plan, flight timing and number, address of the place where he will be staying in Dubai, his contact details including mobile number and landline number to the investigating agency," Justice Phansalkar-Joshi said.
