Known as the Hyderabad fund case, the dispute over the money is one of the longest pending legal battles in the British high court. It relates to £1 million deposited in the Pakistan account of the National Westminster Bank, now called the Royal Bank of Scotland, by a delegation of officials of Hyderabad three days after the state acceded to the Indian union on September 17, 1948. The amount is now worth £35 mn.
