Mehul Choksi, the absconding diamond jeweller and key figure in the Rs 13,000 crore Punjab National Bank (PNB) loan fraud case, has been detained in Belgium. This follows an extradition request by Indian authorities, including the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). Choksi, who fled India in 2018, had been living in Antigua and Barbuda before intelligence inputs linked him to Antwerp, Belgium. The two agencies had filed multiple charge sheets against him and his associates for fraudulently obtaining letters of undertaking and foreign letters of credit, causing a significant loss to the bank. Choksi faces charges related to cheating and money laundering in the PNB scam.
