Lookout notice issued - after Nirav escaped
New Delhi: A lookout notice was issued by the CBI against jeweler Nirav Modi and his associates last month in the banking fraud case, but by then they had escaped from India, CBI sources said on Thursday.
According to the sources, a Look Out Circular was issued against Modi along with his wife Ami, brother Nishal Modi and Mehul Choksi in the Punjab National Bank (PNB) fraud case on January 31.
The circular was issued to all airports, ports and exit points to stop them from escaping. However, according to the sources, Modi and his associates fled the country before the notices were issued.
While Nirav and his brother Nishal left India on January 1, his wife Ami, a US citizen, and Choksi went on January 6, all before the CBI received a complaint from the PNB on January 29.
The source added that around 150 Letters of Understanding were issued to Nirav Modi's firms by the PNB. In the course of the probe, the CBI has finished imaging computers seized during searches at Modi's properties on February 3, 4 and 21.
