Nirav Modi may face fresh FIR for using multiple Indian passports

The Hindu  

Agencies probing the alleged $2-billion PNB fraud have detected that absconding diamond merchant Nirav Modi possessed at least half-a-dozen Indian passports and a fresh FIR is being mulled against him for this offence, officials said on Sunday. Of the two active passports, one had Mr. Nirav Modi’s full name while the other only had his first name with a 40-week UK visa issued against it and that is probably how he kept travelling to various countries, despite the government revoking his first known passport earlier this year, the sources told PTI. The sources said the government, through the Ministry of External Affairs, has informed the Interpol about the two revoked passports of Mr. Nirav Modi, but it appears that in the absence of a uniform international mechanism, the legal blocking of the documents in various countries could not be done and the fugitive diamantaire kept using those to travel through airports and possibly seaports too. The revocation order of the passports has been appended to the application of the probe agencies, seeking an Interpol arrest warrant or a “red corner notice” against Mr. Nirav Modi. Once the Interpol issued the notice and Mr. Nirav Modi’s latest location was ascertained, the government would move for his extradition, the sources said.
