The Statesman Siliguri
|April 15, 2025
Hariprasad SV, the whistle-blower in the multi-crore Punjab National Bank (PNB) scam, has welcomed the arrest of fugitive diamantaire Mehul Choksi in Belgium and strongly urged Indian authorities to ensure his extradition, warning that failure to do so would mean a 'national failure'.
Speaking exclusively to a news agency, Hariprasad reacted to reports that Choksi, wanted in connection with the Rs 13,850 crore PNB loan fraud, was arrested in Antwerp, Belgium, at India's request. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) confirmed his arrest, stating it was part of the ongoing efforts to bring the fugitive businessman back to face justice.
