New Delhi, July 15
Diamantaire Mehul Choksi has landed in Antigua and Barbuda, where he has been staying since 2018 after leaving India, after getting interim bail from the Dominica High Court, local media reported.
Antigua News Room in its report said Choksi reached Antigua and Barbuda from Dominica after staying there for 51 days in custody for illegal entry, but his lawyers claimed that he was kidnapped and brought there.
Choksi (62) was given bail by Dominica HC to travel back to Antigua for seeking medical help from a neurologist there.
After depositing the bail money of EC Dollars 10,000, Choksi flew back to Antigua in a chartered plane, Antigua News Room reported.
While seeking bail, Choksi had attached his medical reports, including CT scan, which showed “mildly worsening hematoma” and doctors recommend an urgent review of his medical condition by a neurologist. — TNS
