Vancouver businessman Ripudaman Singh Malik will not testify in his own defence at the Air India bombing trial.

His lawyers called their two final witnesses on Monday, and will wrap up Malik's defence when they make their closing arguments later on Tuesday.

In all, Malik's lawyers called fewer than a dozen people to testify in his defence – a defence that took just a month.

The prosecution took more than a year to lay out its case in the 1985 airliner bombings.
