Non-bailable warrant against Nirav Modi, Mehul Choksi

A Special CBI court on Sunday issued non-bailable warrants (NBW) against businessmen Nirav Modi and Mehul Choksi, in the Rs 12,363 crore Punjab National Bank fraud case. On 8 March, Choksi gave in writing to the CBI that he would not join the investigation “for four to six months”. Choksi's lawyer was unaware of any NBW against his client while Modi's lawyer criticised the court's move as Modi had responded to “each and every email and notification and summon by the CBI”.
