Time in Nirav Modi coming to India
Nirav has been in London jail for nearly six years after losing the extradition battle to face fraud and money laundering allegations in India and is on remand until a “confidential” process results. On 27 February, a UK court said that the “confidential” process related to Nirav Modi, which prevented extradition, is unlikely to be completed soon. Justice David Bailey had said that India -born businessman denied criminal allegations and has not been convicted. He had said, “He is on remand until the results of the ‘confidential” process are expected to run by the end of 2026. It is unlikely to end soon. ”It is believed that it refers to an application for shelter in Britain, but only indirect references have come in the UK courts so far.
