London, March 29: A UK court rejected Nirav Modi’s second bail application saying there are substantial grounds to believe the fugitive diamantaire will fail to surrender.
Rejecting Modi’s bail plea after hearing both defence and prosecution, Judge Arbuthnot said his attempt to try and seek citizenship of Vanuatu, a remote island country located in the South Pacific Ocean, shows he was trying to move away from India at an important time.
Modi will appear via video link from jail at the next hearing.
