PNB scam: Mehul Choksi moves to Antigua, gets local passport
Mehul Choksi, who is accused of defrauding Punjab National Bank of $2 billion along with his nephew, diamond tycoon Nirav Modi, fled India before the accusations came to light, stated in his court application that he could not disclose his location in public because of the threat to his life.
Mehul Choksi had fled the country in the first week of January, nearly a fortnight before weeks before country's biggest banking fraud surfaced. Image source: DNA India
