Nirav Modi was arrested a short while ago in London. 13 months ago, it came to light that celebrity diamantaire Nirav Modi and his uncle Mehul Choksi had defrauded <keyword id="62034" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Punjab-National-Bank">Punjab National Bank</keyword> (PNB), India’s second-largest state-owned bank, of more than <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/here-are-the-main-findings-from-punjab-national-banks-internal-investigation-into-the-2-billion-nirav-modi-scam/articleshow/64681851.cms">₹143 billion ($2.1 billion)</a>. By using illegal letters of guarantee procured through PNB’s Brady House branch in Mumbai, the pair and their affiliates had taken loans from the overseas branches of a number of Indian banks since 2011 and had subsequently defaulted on them. A warrant for Modi’s arrest was issued by a Westminister Court on March 18th. The warrant came a week after he was spotted on the streets of London with a full beard. Here is how the events leading up to his arrest unfolded. Early January 2018: Nirav Modi reportedly <a href="https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/nation/nirav-modi-fled-india-on-jan-1/544819.html">leaves India</a>. January 29th, 2018: Punjab National Bank filed a complaint with the CBI alleging that Nirav Modi, his uncle Mehul Choksi and their associates had swindled the bank through transactions at its Brady House branch in Mumbai. February 15th, 2018: India’s Enforcement Directorate registers a money laundering case against Nirav Modi and his associates under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act. Early March 2018: The UK’s Serious Fraud Office <a href="https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/why-nirav-modi-wanted-in-india-is-roaming-the-streets-of-london-2006007">confirms</a> to India in early March that Nirav Modi is in London. April 5th, 2018: Regulators in Belgium <a href="https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/pnb-fraud-case-belgium-freezes-two-nirav-modi-accounts-on-ed-request/article23440305.ece?utm_source=pushnotifications&amp;utm_campaign=pushnotifications)">freeze </a>the two bank accounts of Modi after a request from the ED to do so. April 8th, 2018: A court in Mumbai issues <a href="https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/non-bailable-warrant-issued-against-nirav-modi-mehul-choksi-in-pnb-scam-1834399">non-bailable arrest warrants</a> for Modi and Choksi at the CBI’s request. June 13th, 2018: The CBI approached Interpol to issue a red notice against Modi and Choksi. A red notice is a request to locate and arrest a criminal on the run, but not an international arrest warrant. June 29th, 2018: Interpol issues <a href="https://indianexpress.com/article/india/nirav-modi-pnb-fraud-case-arrest-close-as-cbi-sends-extradition-plea-to-uk-5316602/">a red corner notice</a> against Modi, thereby enabling the cooperation of international police. August 20th 2018: The extradition process against Nirav Modi <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/billionaire-fugitive-nirav-modi-could-be-arrested-in-the-uk-as-soon-as-this-week/articleshow/65483882.cms">is initiated</a>. An application is lodged with the UK Home Office. However, the application is reportedly missing certain documents, which causes <a href="https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/waiting-for-uk-to-respond-to-extradition-request-says-india-after-nirav-modi-seen-in-london-2005117">proceedings</a> to be delayed. October 1st, 2018: The ED seizes around <a href="https://www.indiatoday.in/business/story/assets-of-nirav-modi-worth-rs-637-crore-seized-by-ed-1353236-2018-10-01">₹6.4 billion </a>of Nirav Modi’s assets. This includes properties in India and abroad as well as jewelry and bank deposits. March 8th, 2019: The UK Home Office certified India’s extradition request, deeming Nirav Modi’s case “fit for extradition”. The case was then transferred to the District Court in Westminister, which had to issue the summons. March 9th, 2019: The Telegraph, a UK daily, <a href="https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/03/08/exclusive-indias-wanted-man-nirav-modi-accused-15bn-fraud/">broke the news </a>that Nirav Modi was living in London. The newspaper said it had tracked Modi down to his £8 million (₹726 million) flat in London’s West End.

Here’s how the 13-month chase for Nirav Modi came to an end

<ul><li>Last week, Interpol’s bureau in Manchester asked the CBI to issue an <keyword id="82903" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="extradition">extradition</keyword> request and provisional arrest warrant for Modi, who is currently living in the UK. </li><li>The extradition request paves the way for Modi’s immediate arrest and presentation before a court. </li><li>Meanwhile, Modi’s fellow conspirator in the case, <keyword id="2763" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Mehul-Choksi">Mehul Choksi</keyword> has taken up citizenship of Antigua.

Following a request to Interpol from the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to issue a red corner notice, or an international arrest warrant, against him, the absconding billionaire was reported to be seen in Brussels in June. Like fellow wilful defaulter Vijay Mallya, Modi was subsequently confirmed to be living in the UK, where he has reportedly applied for political asylum. And now, it looks like he could soon be arrested, even as early as this week, according to a report by the Indian Express. Last week, Interpol’s bureau in Manchester asked the CBI to issue an extradition request and provisional warrant for Modi’s arrest. A spokesperson for the CBI, Abhishek Dayal, confirmed to news outlets that the extradition request was sent yesterday to authorities in the UK via the Ministry of External Affairs. The extradition request paves the way for Modi to be immediately arrested in the UK and eventually stand before a court. Earlier this month, India’s Enforcement Directorate, a federal agency tasked with fighting economic crimes, also sent an arrest warrant and extradition request to UK authorities in relation to the Nirav Modi scam. Modi is not the only person of interest in the case. The CBI has also filed chargesheets against his fellow conspirator, Mehul Choksi - whose also his uncle, as well as his wife, Ami Modi and son, Nishal. All left India in January, shortly before the scam was revealed. Despite the revocation of his passport, Modi was believed to be travelling on a passport issued by Singapore. Meanwhile, Choksi is said to have taken up citizenship of Antigua, an island in the Caribbean. A request for his extradition was handed over to officials in Antigua and Barbuda at the beginning of August. However, given the absence of a extradition treaty between India and Antigua, the only way for Indian authorities to extradite Choksi is to get Interpol to issue a red corner notice against him. The application for Choksi’s international arrest warrant is reported to be still pending with Interpol. Separately, on August 20th, a special CBI court granted bail to Usha Ananthasubramanian, who was the managing director and CEO of Punjab National Bank when the scam took place. Prior to the fraud case coming to light, Ananthasubramanian was the MD and CEO of Allahabad Bank, a role which she was eventually forced to relinquish. She was named in a chargesheet for failing to properly prevent the fraudulent letters of undertaking from being issued by the bank.

They said the 'red notice' has been issued by the global police body on the request of the Enforcement Directorate (ED). Once such a notice issued against a fugitive, the Interpol asks its 192-member countries to arrest or detain the person if spotted in their countries after which extradition or deportation proceedings can begin. Ami Modi is stated to have left country soon after the alleged bank fraud case came into light in 2018. The ED has charged Ami Modi for conspiring and money laundering with her husband and jeweller Nirav Modi apart from his uncle Mehul Choksi and others under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). Nirav Modi (49), is currently lodged in a UK jail after being arrested in London in March, 2019 and is currently fighting extradition to India. He has been declared a fugitive economic offender by a Mumbai court early this year and the court had also ordered confiscation of his assets. The ED has already confiscated about Rs 329 crore of his linked properties. The businessman, Choksi and others are being probed by the ED on money laundering charges in connection with an over USD 2 billion alleged bank fraud at a PNB branch in Mumbai. Similar Interpol notices have been earlier been issued against Nirav Modi's younger brother Nehal Modi and sister Purvi Modi.

The income tax department of India, today, auctioned the seized artwork paintings at the Saffron Art Gallery in Mumbai. <a href="https://www.indiatoday.in/india/story/nirav-modi-paintings-go-under-hammer-fetch-over-rs-54-crore-for-income-tax-department-1487311-2019-03-27">According to media reports</a>, the government recovered nearly ₹548 million by selling 55 of the 68 paintings during the bidding session that went on for more than two hours. However, the income tax department expected to recover ₹970 million from the event. The collection, in total, fetched ₹609 million. The auction included bidders from London, New York and New Delhi among others, bidding online for the paintings. As the auction took place, on Wednesday, Camelot Enterprises. Nirav Modi’s company, has filed a petition against the auction of paintings in the Bombay High Court calling the move unlawful. The company also said a few of those paintings are actually company’s assets, demanding to restrict the auction. Ranging from thousands to millions, the paintings were the artwork by renowned Indian painters including Raja Ravi Verma, FN Souza, Jogen Chowdhury, VS Gaitonde and Akbar Padamsee. For instance, Raja Ravi Verma’s oil on canvas from 1881 was sold at ₹140 million. Of the 55 painting sold during the auction, the highest amount fetched from a painting was recorded at ₹220 million and nearly 10 paintings touched the ₹<a href="https://indianexpress.com/article/india/nirav-modi-in-london-prison-his-art-under-mumbai-hammer-i-t-recovers-rs-54-8-crore-5644486/">10 million mark</a>. While, the 13 unsold paintings include a few by Chinese painters including a Miao Xiaochun piece. The paintings were sold at a Goods &amp; Services Tax (GST) of 12% along with a 15% commission for the auction house. Nirav Modi’s legal team is expected to file the second bail application in the UK court on Friday since he denied the first bail application on March 20. The CBI will send a team to Londom for the hearing on 29 March, ANI reported. Earlier, the ED reportedly <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/nirav-modi-arrested-in-london/articleshow/68496650.cms">seized around</a> ₹6.4 billion from Nirav Modi’s assets including his property, bank deposits and jewellery.

To this effect, the Ministry of Home Affairs has empowered the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO), which is housed under the corporate affairs ministry, to request the issuance of <a href="https://indianexpress.com/article/india/centre-gives-sfio-powers-to-stop-defaulters-from-fleeing-the-country-5468015/">look-out-circulars </a>(LOC) against people who are suspected of defaulting on large loans. Last week, the same power was also granted to the<a href="https://www.livemint.com/Politics/lAjlD5SnzGYkS87SyKxVJI/Govt-authorises-public-sector-bank-CEOs-to-request-for-look.html"> CEOs of India’s public-sector banks</a>, which have largely been the major casualties of these frauds and loan defaults. However, as these public-sector banks aren’t official investigation agencies, the LOCs requested by them can be challenged in court. That is not the case with the SFIO. Prior to these changes, the ability to request for LOCs was mainly extended to police authorities, the CBI, Enforcement Directorate, the home and external affairs ministries as well as regional passport offices and customs and tax officials. A major reason why wilful defaulters like <keyword id="14678" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Vijay-Mallya">Vijay Mallya</keyword>, <keyword id="571991" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Nirav-Modi">Nirav Modi</keyword> and Mehul Choksi were able to flee India for safer havens was because the agencies or entities that caught wind of their crimes did not have the authority to prevent them from fleeing and had to follow protocols and notify higher powers with said authority. By the time formal channels of communication were activated, it was too late. This is reportedly what happened in the case of Vijay Mallya, who fled India in March 2016. The CBI actually <a href="https://www.hindustantimes.com/india/cbi-ignored-immigration-alert-on-mallya-leaving-india-on-march-2/story-hW83mkAc6qVe14VyFVOIFJ.html">watered-down the LOC</a> it had filed against the liquor baron in October 2015 from “detain” to “inform” after citing a lack of evidence and Mallya’s supposed intention to cooperate, which eventually allowed him to leave the country. The CBI had actually taken over the case from the SFIO, which had been looking into the diversion of funds at Mallya’s companies in September 2015. By broadening the number of stakeholders that can ask for the arrest of a <keyword id="2168141" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Wilful-defaulter">wilful defaulter</keyword>, the move could decrease the chances of this happening again in the future, especially in instances where investigations by the police and CBI are hamstrung by “conflicts of interest” or they don’t follow through with arrests. A few months ago, the central government also passed the <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/india-takes-its-first-big-step-towards-avoiding-future-nirav-modi-vijay-mallya-like-scams/articleshow/65069668.cms">Fugitive Economic Offenders Act</a>. The law allows the Enforcement Directorate to seize the domestic as well as foreign assets of “economic offenders” who have left the country so their creditors may recover their dues. The crimes involve amounts of ₹1 billion or more.

Ramalinga Raju who was convicted in Satyam scam and three others. A Hyderabad civil court passed the stay order on a petition filed by Raju, who was released on bail in 2018. He sought orders to restrain Netflix from releasing the web series on the ground that it would invade his privacy in an unlawful manner. Raju also claimed that the narrative contained half-truths and palpably designed to bring down his reputation. Netflix has already released the trailer of the web series which is about Vijay Mallya, Nirav Modi, Subrata Roy and Ramalinga Raju. "What would you do to make it to the top? To build an empire? To maintain an image? Bad Boy Billionaires answers just that.

Watch as insiders and experts discuss what made these men genius and, in some cases, the greatest conmen," reads the description by Netflix. A court in Bihar had last week restrained Netflix from using Subrata Roy's name in the web series. The over Rs 7,000 crore Satyam scam came to light on January 7, 2009 when Ramalinga Raju confessed that the company's account books and profits were inflated over many years to the tune of several crores of rupees. Police arrested him two days later on a complaint by some shareholders. The CBI filed three charge sheets against Raju and the other accused, charging them with cheating, criminal conspiracy, forgery, falsification of accounts and breach of trust. A special CBI court in April 2015 had sentenced him, his two brothers and seven others to seven years in prison in the case, said to be India's biggest corporate fraud. However, a month later, the metropolitan sessions court suspended their sentence and granted them bail.

The UK wants all the rights without the obligations that other countries have to agree to."The European Arrest Warrant - established in 2002 - is the EU's cross-border system for extraditing alleged criminals from one member state to another. In practice, it means that a person based in Britain accused of crimes in another EU member state can be extradited with reduced cost and legal complication, and vice versa.Extraditions can take place outside the European Arrest Warrant. However, they'd be much more costly for a UK government and require a more drawn-out legal process. <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/may/10/brexit-could-bring-back-bad-old-days-of-costa-del-warns-mep" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Figures show</a> that over 1,000 fugitives have been extradited to the UK through the initiative, while the UK has extradited around 10,000 alleged criminals to other EU member states since 2004.Politicians from across Britain's parties have told BI that May must relax her ECJ red-line in order to protect Britain's national security. There is particular concern that leaving the European Arrest Warrant will make Britain a popular destination for European fugitives, as it'll be more difficult for them to be extradited to countries where they are wanted by authorities. "Leaving the European Arrest Warrant makes this country less safe. Ask any policeman, the UK will become the destination of choice for criminals," Catherine Bearder, Liberal Democrat MEP, told BI."When will Mrs May and Mr Javid realise the damage to our safety that their harmful and completely unnecessary red line on leaving the European Court of Justice will do? They must rethink their hard-line opposition." This concern was echoed by Labour MEP Seb Dance, who said leaving the European Arrest Warrant means "Britain faces a double whammy of being unable to bring our own criminals to justice and becoming a haven for criminals from across Europe seeking to hide from their own governments."<h2>"It's absolutely nuts"</h2><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image">Seb Dance MEPLabour MEP Seb Dance.</div></div></div>Politicians from across the political spectrum criticised May's refusal to shift on her red lines.One leading MEP who wished to remain anonymous told BI: "It's absolutely nuts. It's the UK's fault for not following the rules - not the EU's fault for insisting on them."May was accused of putting <keyword id="6358883" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="politics">politics</keyword> above Britain's security. "This is another example of unexpected consequences," Julie Girling MEP - <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2017/oct/07/whip-withdrawn-from-tory-meps-who-voted-to-block-brexit-progress" target="_blank" rel="noopener">who in October</a> had her parliamentary whip removed by the Conservatives for voting against Brexit talks progressing to the next stage - told BI this week."The UK Government has just assumed that the UK will be able to opt into the EAW system without ensuring agreement from Brussels. I hope we can as it is clearly mutually beneficial, but it is a good example of where we could both be significantly worse off as a result of Brexit."In <a href="http://uk.businessinsider.com/conservative-meps-richard-ashworth-julie-girling-brexit-theresa-may-2018-3" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an interview with BI earlier this year</a>, Girling strongly criticised her former party's handling of Brexit. "It's either a lack of understanding, or it's a deliberate fudging because they don't have a political answer," she said. In Westminster, Labour MP Ian Murray said the government's Brexit plan posed "a potential threat to the security of our country," adding "this latest news about the European Arrest Warrant only makes things worse."Murray, a supporter of the People's Vote campaign, added: "The EAW allows us to quickly and easily extradite foreign criminals or bring UK nationals back to this country to face justice without getting bogged down in bureaucracy."The news that Britain is set to be excluded from the European Arrest Warrant came after the latest round of talks between EU and British negotiators in Brussels this week.<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2018/may/24/uk-chasing-a-fantasy-in-brexit-talks-top-eu-official-warns" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A senior EU official told reporters</a> that the UK government was "chasing a fantasy" and that a myriad of issues was far from being resolved with just five months until a deal needs to be agreed.

Though this is not at all a new phenomenon, the Nirav Modi case has opened up a Pandora’s box full of dodgy transactions -- that typically involves cases where the borrower intentionally tries to deceive the lending bank and does not repay the loan -- that run in millions and even billions. As a result of which, the CBI is on an overdrive to nab these offenders. According to data from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), accessed through a right-to-information request by a <a href="https://in.reuters.com/article/india-banks-fraud/exclusive-unpublished-data-shows-indias-fraud-problems-extend-far-beyond-pnb-idINKCN1G00SJ">Reuters</a> reporter, in the five financial years leading up to 31 March 2017 showed that state-run banks reported 8,670 “loan fraud” cases totalling ₹612.6 billion. And the number of bad loans alone was close to a whopping <a href="https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/unpublished-data-shows-indias-fraud-problems-extend-far-beyond-pnb-1813569" data-type="tilCustomLink">$149 billion</a> last year. According to proxy advisory firm Institutional Investor Advisory Services (IiAS), in 2016-17 alone the <a href="https://www.firstpost.com/business/frauds-cost-rs-18170-cr-in-12553-cases-to-banking-sector-in-fy17-advisory-firm-report-4411267.html">Indian banking sector reported 12,553 frauds aggregating to Rs 181.7 billion</a>. Here’s are of the biggest frauds that came to light in the past financial year. Kanishk Gold Pvt Ltd./consortium of 14 banks led by <keyword id="6354731" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="state-bank-of-india">State Bank of India</keyword> (SBI): Kanishk Gold Pvt Ltd. has been <a href="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/india-business/jewellery-chain-kanishk-gold-defrauds-14-banks-to-tune-of-rs-824-15-crore/articleshow/63394221.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink">accused</a> by a consortium of 14 banks led by SBI of defaulting on a loan of ₹8241.5 million. While the principal loan amount is about ₹8241.5 million, adding the interest due would indicate a loss of more than ₹10 billion. In a letter dated 25 January 2018 to the CBI, SBI charged Kanishk with "manipulating records, shutting shop overnight." Nirav Modi / <keyword id="6476298" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Punjab-National-Bank">Punjab National Bank:</keyword> The all-too-famous case in which companies owned by billionaire jeweller Nirav Modi and his uncle Mehul Choksi allegedly defrauded India's second-biggest state-run bank of over <a href="http://www.thehindu.com/business/Industry/all-you-need-to-know-about-nirav-modi-and-the-177-billion-pnb-fraud/article22753973.ece" data-type="tilCustomLink">₹1.77 billion</a>, making it India's biggest detected loan fraud. Apparently, two junior officers at a single branch had illegally issued fraudulent “letters of undertaking” (a guarantee that a bank is obliged to repay the loan if the actual borrower fails) without any collateral to the accused. When the accused failed to pay up, the bank employees involved issued more LoUs on behalf of PNB, asking other banks to give out fresh loans to the firms. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) registered the case on 31 January 2018. Vikram Kothari / consortium of 7 banks led by Bank of India: The CBI arrested <keyword id="5888255" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Rotomac">Rotomac</keyword> owner Vikram Kothari and his family in the alleged “willful” loan default to the tune of ₹ 36950 million on 22 Feb 2018. As alleged, the case relates to bank loans <a href="https://thewire.in/banking/banking-sector-hit-second-scam-rs-3695-cr-rotomac-promoters-probed" data-type="tilCustomLink">worth ₹ 29190 million</a> from 2008 onwards taken by Mr Kothari’s companies from a consortium led by Bank of India and comprising Bank of Baroda, Indian Overseas Bank, Union Bank of India, Allahabad Bank, Bank of Maharashtra and Oriental Bank of Commerce. This amount inflated to ₹ 36950 million after including accrued interest, because of repeated defaults on payment. Dwarka Das Seth International Pvt Ltd / Oriental Bank of Commerce: On 24 February 2018, the CBI registered a case against Delhi-based diamond exporter, Dwarka Das Seth International Pvt Ltd, for an alleged <keyword id="77600" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="bank-fraud">bank fraud</keyword> to the tune of <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/politics-and-nation/cbi-approaches-interpol-to-locate-promoter-of-dwarka-das-seth-jewellers/articleshow/63129931.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink">₹3898.5 million</a>. The company was supposedly using letters of credit (LoCs) to pay off other creditors against the purchase of gold and other precious stone and transfer gold and funds outside the country using fictitious transactions. The company was also engaging in business transactions with non-existent entities, it said. Totem Infrastructure Ltd / consortium of eight banks led by Union Bank of India: CBI arrested the promoters of Totem Infrastructure Ltd — Tottempudi Salalith and Tottempudi Kavita — on 23 March 2018 in connection with an alleged <a href="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/india-business/cbi-arrests-promoters-of-totem-infra-in-rs-1394-crore-fraud-case/articleshow/63433753.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink">₹13940 million</a> fraud perpetrated against a consortium of eight banks. They were also accused of using the funds that were loaned to them for purposes other than what they were meant for. Aircel promoter C Sivasankaran and more / IDBI Bank: The CBI on Thursday (26 April 2018) registered a case against 15 former and serving senior IDBI Bank officials along with 24 others including former Aircel promoter C Sivasankaran, the heads of two public sector banks — Melwyn Rego of Syndicate Bank and Kishor Kharat of Indian Bank — and former CMD of IDBI Bank M S Raghavanand in an alleged <a href="http://www.thehindu.com/business/Industry/idbi-bank-fraud-case-cbi-books-indian-bank-and-syndicate-bank-chiefs-aircel-founder/article23684141.ece" data-type="tilCustomLink">₹6-billion</a> bank fraud case. The CBI claims loans worth ₹3220 million and ₹5230 million were given to Sivasankaran’s two offshore companies – Axcel Sunshine Limited (British Virgin Islands) and Finland-based Win Wind Oy respectively – which turned non-performing assets.

Sale of assets seized from the alleged perpetrators including diamond designer <keyword id="571991" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Nirav-Modi">Nirav Modi</keyword>, starting this month, suggests a long road to recovery. Through the Enforcement Directorate, the agency responsible for fighting economic crime in India, the government has engaged Mumbai-based Saffronart to auction a litany of luxury goods to recoup its losses. The list includes prized artworks by Indian and Chinese painters, Hermes’ Birkin and Kelly handbags and a Jaeger-LeCoultre watch in platinum. A <keyword id="925742" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Rolls-Royce-Ghost">Rolls-Royce Ghost</keyword> and a Porsche Panamera S are also going under the hammer. An on-site live auction is set for February 27 and an online bidding on March 3 and 4, with both events expected to raise US$5.7 million and US$7.1 million, respectively, the auction house estimated in an email to the Post on Wednesday. “These works are of significant interest to strong collectors and connoisseurs of Indian and Chinese art,” said Dinesh Vazirani, CEO and co-founder of Saffronart, which has conducted 250 auctions over its 20-year history. “In terms of interest, the bags and cars have a much wider appeal.” Diamond jewellery designer <keyword id="740578" type="DOMAIN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Nirav">Nirav</keyword> Modi fled India in 2018 after the Punjab National Bank scandal broke out.

The Enforcement Directorate has since attached at least US$1 billion worth of assets belonging to Modi and other people charged in the case. Modi is being remanded in the UK’s Wandsworth prison until February 27 as he fights an extradition in a trial that is set to begin in May, according to an Economic Times <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/politics-and-nation/pnb-fraud-case-nirav-modi-to-appear-for-remand-hearing-in-uk/articleshow/73761275.cms" target="_blank" class="link-text">report</a>. on January 30.

Low Taek Jho has been in hiding since the US$4.5 billion scandal involving the looting at a Malaysian state investment fund. Carlos Ghosn fled to Lebanon after being charged for alleged financial misconduct while helming Japanese carmaker Nissan Motor. For India, they are emblematic of the state of its banking industry. Years of poor lending controls, weak recoveries and occasional frauds have saddled the financial system with ever more soured loans. The country’s 42 commercial banks collectively wrote off 2.12 trillion rupees (US$29.7 billion) of bad loans in 2018-19, the <a href="https://www.business-standard.com/article/finance/india-s-banks-wrote-off-rs-2-trillion-worth-of-bad-loans-in-2018-19-119112900099_1.html" target="_blank" class="link-text">Business Standard reported</a> , citing official data released in parliament. That was 42 per cent higher than a year earlier, and equivalent to about one-fifth of their non-performing assets, it said. For Saffronart, its business can do with some stamp of recognition. The government last year engaged the firm to auction a cache of works by Indian and Chinese artists, raising almost US$8 million for the tax recovery department. Saffronart has set the industry standard for the process of valuation for artworks and collectibles, Vazirani said, “based on expertise and data analytics.”

Each of the three member states will still be able to extradite UK citizens, or other EU nationals under the European Arrest Warrant during the transition period.The UK left the EU at 11pm on Thursday, marking the end of three-and-a-half years of dramatic political turmoil.In a message which was broadcast as the UK left the EU, Prime Minister Boris Johnson said Brexit was "not an end but a beginningIn a video message filmed inside his Downing Street residence, Johnson said: "The most important thing to say tonight is that this is not an end but a beginning.""This is the moment when the dawn breaks and the curtain goes up on a new act."It is a moment of real national renewal and change."Our Brexit Insider Facebook group is the best place for up-to-date news and analysis about Britain's departure from the EU, direct from Business Insider's political reporters.

At its core, the Nirav Modi scam is a hack, though it can't really be labeled as cybercrime. <keyword id="6242884" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="gokulnath-shetty">Gokulnath Shetty</keyword>, deputy branch manager at a <keyword id="47268" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="PNB">PNB</keyword> branch in South Mumbai, had the passwords required to log into the SWIFT system. That allowed him to effectively game the system in favour of Modi's firms. But what is SWIFT? And how is a password enough to send $ 1.6 billion down the drain? The anatomy of a bank heist When money is transferred overseas, banks inform the same to the country's treasury. The treasury then informs another country's treasury, which in turn tells the bank in that other country to transfer the funds. But, as powerful as the treasury is, it cannot do so without a branch manager's consent. The branch manager in question here is the bank branch that originally got the transfer request. This consent (from the bank's branch manager) is issued through SWIFT messages. You could call it the world's most powerful messaging system. SWIFT is an inter-bank messaging system that doesn't transfer any money but informs banks around the world that loans or fund transfers have been authorised. SWIFT messages are sent in set formats and hold information relevant to a particular transfer. In the Nirav Modi scam, the Letters of Understanding (LoU) in question were issued through SWIFT. Unlike the $81 million Bangladesh Bank hack of 2016, there was no malware involved in this case. The malware here were humans, armed with passwords. A CBI source told <a href="https://thewire.in/225297/nirav-modis-team-given-unauthorised-access-pnb-systems-cbi-sources/" data-type="tilCustomLink">The Wire</a> that - "Modi's staff were logging into the SWIFT system using passwords of PNB officials, including Shetty, in the capacity of verifier/authoriser and enabling the fraudulent SWIFT messages." What this means is that the accused were issuing and approving the consent of their own accord. Core Banking System (CBS) But there's a failsafe for that as well. Consent issued via SWIFT are eventually supposed to tie in with a bank's core system. This is the technology allowing various bank branches to inter-operate. The Core Banking System and the SWIFT system are separate systems, requiring manual input for SWIFT messages into the CBS. This is where PNB's oversight comes into the picture. A LoU issued via the SWIFT system is supposed to be manually entered into the CBS at some point. Somehow, no one did that, and no one asked either. The result? $ 1.6 billion or more in the hands of diamond sellers. (Image courtesy: PTI)

This past February, it came to light that Modi, a prominent Indian jeweller and billionaire, had used his clout to allegedly procure fraudulent letters of undertaking from a Mumbai branch of the <keyword id="62034" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="Punjab-National-Bank">Punjab National Bank</keyword> (PNB). He then used the letters to get loans from not only PNB, but a number of Indian banks like State Bank of India and <keyword id="6358005" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="allahabad-bank">Allahabad Bank</keyword>, and eventually defaulted on the loans, despite issuing additional letters to pay back these loans. Modi and his associates defrauded these banks of ₹130 billion ($1.92 billion) between 2011 and 2017. This is the biggest banking fraud in India’s history. And now, it’s led to the highest quarterly loss ever by an Indian bank. PNB, India’s second-largest government-owned bank, reported a loss of <a href="https://www.pnbindia.in/downloadprocess.aspx?fid=qTvsjnzvILodoPNEqn9wCQ==">₹134.2 billion</a> for the quarter ended March 31st. Its loss even exceeded its total revenue of ₹129.5 billion. Given that PNB sanctioned the invalid letters of undertaking, it is the main bearer of liability for the loans that Modi and his partner firms have defaulted on. It will have to drum up the payments for these letters of credit itself. Hence, it’s provisions for bad loans and defaulted accounts surged 355% from the previous quarter to a staggering ₹203.5 billion. Around 40% of this figure was accounted for by the Nirav Modi fraud alone. In fact, after staying well under the ₹600 billion mark for all of 2017, the bank’s total amount of bad loans ballooned to ₹866 billion by the end of March 2018. There were around ₹291 billion of fresh bad loans in just the last quarter of fiscal 2018. The bank’s growth will be severely limited for the foreseeable future. All the capital that the managed to raise from institutional investors, <a href="https://www.thehindubusinessline.com/markets/pnb-raises-rs-5000-cr-via-qualified-institutional-placement/article9989982.ece">₹50 billion</a> in December 2017, and the government, <a href="https://www.bloombergquint.com/business/2018/03/08/over-a-dozen-state-owned-banks-to-get-rs-46000-crore-capital-infusion-this-month#gs.3aHyZcg">₹54 billion</a>, was insufficient to cover its provisions, let alone its other growth initiatives and capital expenditure. Given the dire state of PNB’s finances, it is likely to be put under the <keyword id="6354335" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="reserve-bank-of-india">Reserve Bank of India</keyword>’s Prompt Corrective Action watchlist (PCA). The operations of 11 of India’s 21 state-owned banks are already being monitored under the PCA programme, which imposes restrictions on fresh loans. PNB is already said to be taking steps to make credit underwriting norms more rigorous and improving its internal auditing process. Meanwhile, the Nirav Modi fraud is still being investigated by India’s Central Bureau of Intelligence and judicial authorities, and names are finally being named. A charge sheet against Modi and his uncle, Mehul Choksi, - both of whom are absconding - was filed by the investigative agency earlier this week. <a href="http://www.business-standard.com/article/current-affairs/pnb-scam-two-bank-execs-removed-allahabad-bank-chief-to-step-down-118051400782_1.html">A number of other people</a>, including senior directors at PNB and Allahabad Bank, were also charged in the filing for various breaches. The senior management of all the banks involved will likely be cleaned out and reshuffled.
