India formally requests Antigua to extradite Mehul Choksi
India on Sunday formally submitted a request to Antigua for the extradition of PNB scam accused Mehul Choksi. Choksi had acquired citizenship of the Caribbean nation in November 2017 and fled India in January, days before the $2.1-billion scam was exposed. Recently, Antiguan authorities revealed they granted Choksi citizenship only after receiving a police clearance certificate from India.
