Nirav Modi's Brother Nehal Arrested in US on CBI, ED's Extradition Request

Nehal Modi, younger brother of fugitive Nirav Modi, was arrested in the United States on July 4 based on extradition requests from Indian authorities.
The arrest is connected to charges related to the massive Punjab National Bank scam valued at approximately ₹13,000 crore, with Nehal facing allegations of money laundering and involvement in a criminal conspiracy.
Officials accuse Nehal Modi of destroying evidence and knowingly assisting Nirav Modi by concealing illicit funds through shell companies and offshore transactions after the scam was exposed.
The Enforcement Directorate claims that Nehal and his associate Mihir Bhansali removed 50 kilograms of gold along with a large sum of money from Dubai, and US prosecutors intend to oppose Nehal’s anticipated bail application at the hearing scheduled for July 17.
Nehal Modi faces ongoing extradition proceedings, and his arrest underscores continuing efforts to hold involved parties accountable in one of India's largest banking frauds.
