Indian authorities have reiterated that the government is doing its best to extradite beleaguered jeweller Nirav Modi after he was spotted in London.

However, according to an NDTV report published on Tuesday, 12 March, the British authorities have claimed that several queries were sent to India regarding Nirav Modi, but they received no response.

These claims were denied by the ED in a press release, saying the facts have been “distorted” and “wrong conclusions” have been drawn.
