New Delhi: India has got a huge success in the Rs 14,000 crore fraud case with Punjab National Bank. The Westminster magistrate court of Britain has ordered the extradition of Nirav Modi, the fugitive diamond trader in the case, to India. The court held Nirav Modi guilty of conspiring to destroy evidence and intimidating witnesses, saying he had to answer on a case in India. Let us know that Nirav Modi was arrested by the Scotland Yard Police of Britain from London on 13 March 2019. He has since been lodged in Wandsworth Jail in South West London.
Nirav challenged the extradition order against him in the court. After a two-year-long legal battle, District Judge Samuel Gooji ruled that there was a legal case against Nirav, in which he would have to appear in an Indian court.
