London, October 17, 2019, Thursday

Nirav Modi, a fugitive who fled abroad after scandalizing millions in India, is likely to appear in a London court today. His judicial custody expires today.

Nirav is currently in a London jail. It was likely to be presented to the court by a video conference. India sought silence in pursuance of the extradition treaty with Britain. During the last hearing, Justice David Robinson told Nirvana that there were no true facts in your statement.

The extradition hearing will be held for five consecutive days from May 11 to 15 of 2020. British law requires that extradition cases be heard once every 28 days. In this way, Nirav will be produced before the court today by a video conference.

Nirav was arrested in London on March 19 this year, according to an Interpol investigation and a Red Corner notice. He has since been in Wandsworth Prison. The prison is one of London's most crowded prisons. There are many more prisoners than capacity. Scotland Yard arrested him following allegations made by India and the extradition treaty.

Nirav's lawyers have applied for bail four times so far. But the prosecution has the ability to flee. The court has rejected the bail application four times, following an accurate presentation made by AV.
