evidence: On Facebook, several users are posting the purported statements said to be made by the fugitive businessman Nirav Modi before the London Court. And here in India, as elections are approaching, the supporters of the two major national parties i.e., the BJP and the Congress are casting aspersions on one another over Nirav Modi’s fleeing from India. Let’s try to analyze the claims made in the posts. [...] Nirav Modi’s London Court proceedings took place twice, first on 21st March,2019 and the second one on 29th March,2019. He was questioned in the court only on the 21st March hearing. It was covered by almost all the leading newspapers in India. As per the Times of India story which covered the same, there was no mention of any statements made by Nirav Modi regarding the threats by the Indian political leaders as the reason to flee from India. Hence, Nirav Modi hasn’t stated to London Court that he was threatened by leaders of Indian political party and that is the reson to flee from the country. Since this is election time, the two political rival parties i.e., the BJP and Congress are spreading this misinformation to gain political mileage.
