Mumbai, May 17: The special TADA court today issued non-bailable warrants against two convicts of the 1993 Mumbai serial blasts case as they failed to surrender within the deadline set by the Supreme Court.  



Actor Sanjay Dutt, for whom yesterday's deadline had been set by the SC, has surrendered before the authorities.  But the two fellow convicts, Sharif (Dada) Parkar and Zebunisa Kazi, today moved separate applications before the TADA Court seeking more time to surrender on medical grounds. 

Sharif (Dada) Parkar, who is over 80 years old, had been hospitalised following chest pain, and doctors had advised him angioplasty procedure, his lawyer Farhana Shah told the Judge G A Sanap.

The lawyer of Zebunisa Kazi (75) said Kazi had been advised to take certain medical tests and she needed time till May 20. The TADA judge, however, said it would not be possible for him to consider these pleas as the deadline had been fixed by the apex court.

While Parkar was to surrender yesterday, Kazi was to give herself up before the court today.
