Fugitive Mehul Choksi Arrested in Belgium After India’s Extradition Push in ₹13,500-Crore PNB Scam

Fugitive diamond tycoon Mehul Choksi, accused in India’s ₹13,500-crore PNB fraud case, has been arrested in Belgium following India’s extradition request.

Choksi, previously residing in Antigua, allegedly used forged documents to gain Belgian residency.

Sources reveal he planned to flee to Switzerland under the guise of medical treatment.

The case is now under process as India seeks his return for prosecution.

His nephew, Nirav Modi, remains jailed in the UK, also facing extradition.

China Calls Americans ‘Peasants’ As Trade War Erupts | Trump's Hong Kong Gambit Sparks Outrage

A top Chinese official has blasted President Trump’s Hong Kong tariffs, calling them “arrogant and shameless.” Xia Baolong, director of the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office, further mocked the U.S. by referring to Americans as “peasants,” warning of a backlash against Trump’s trade war tactics. The insult follows a heated exchange after U.S. VP J.D. Vance’s earlier comment on China.
