While removing Choksi's name from the wanted list, Interpol said that he might 'face the risk of not receiving a fair trial or treatment in the country.'

In a setback to India's investigative agencies, Interpol has removed fugitive diamantaire Mehul Choksi's name from its red notice based on a plea by him.
In its order, Interpol said there was a 'credible possibility' that Choksi's abduction from Antigua to Dominica had the ultimate purpose of deporting him to India where he might 'face the risk of not receiving a fair trial.'
Notably, Choksi, wanted in $2 billion PNB fraud case had alleged that he was abducted by Indian agents from Antigua and taken to Dominica in May, 2021.

Wanted in the Rs 13,500 crore bank fraud case fugitive diamond merchant Nirav Modi has lost appeal against his extradition to India. He is lodged in a UK prison since 2019.&nbsp;

The High Court in London on Wednesday ordered diamond merchant Nirav Modi's extradition to India to face charges of fraud and money laundering, amounting to an estimated USD 2 billion in the Punjab National Bank (PNB) loan scam case.
Lord Justice Jeremy Stuart-Smith and Justice Robert Jay, who presided over the appeal hearing earlier this year, delivered the verdict.
The 51-year-old businessman, who remains behind bars at Wandsworth prison in south-east London, had been granted permission to appeal against District Judge Sam Goozee's Westminster Magistrates' Court ruling in favour of extradition last February.
The leave to appeal in the High Court was granted on two grounds &ndash; under Article 3 of the European Convention of Human Rights (ECHR) to hear arguments if it would &ldquo;unjust or oppressive&rdquo; to extradite Modi due to his mental state and Section 91 of the Extradition Act 2003, also related to mental ill health.
Modi is the subject of two sets of criminal proceedings, with the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) case relating to a large-scale fraud upon PNB through the fraudulent obtaining of letters of undertaking (LoUs) or loan agreements, and the Enforcement Directorate (ED) case relating to the laundering of the proceeds of that fraud.

He also faces two additional charges of "causing the disappearance of evidence" and intimidating witnesses or &ldquo;criminal intimidation to cause death&rdquo;, which were added to the CBI case.&nbsp;

Purvi Modi, sister of fugitive diamond&nbsp; businessman Nirav Modi, has reportedly offered to remit about Rs 275 crore lying in a Swiss bank account to the Indian government.
Earlier this month, The Indian Express, as part of its investigation into the Pandora Papers, had reported, that a month before Nirav Modi fled India in January 2018,&nbsp;Purvi Modi set up a company&nbsp;in the British Virgin Islands&nbsp;to act as a corporate protector of funds in&nbsp;The Deposit Trust.
Purvi&nbsp;had claimed that Brookton Management Ltd, the offshore company was funded by her salary and personal earnings as the creative director of Firestar, the company accused of defrauding Punjab National bank.
Reports citing sources say,&nbsp;Purvi Modi&nbsp;has now given a no-objection letter for remitting about Rs 275 crore lying in the bank account.&nbsp;Earlier this year a court in Mumbai had allowed Nirav's sister&nbsp;Purvi Modi&nbsp;to turn approver in the Punjab National Bank (PNB) scam case.
The Indian government is now reportedly considering Purvi Modi&rsquo;s application and is in talks with the Swiss authorities for repatriation of funds.
