Nirav Modi News: The BJP on Thursday accused the Congress of saving fugitive businessman Nirav Modi while defending his government. Prasad said that Nirav is under trial in a London court for extradition. While a person from Congress is protecting him.
BJP leader and Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad has attacked the Congress party through a video.
He said via tweet, ‘Today when the Narendra Modi government is trying to bring Nirav Modi to India, then a member of the Congress and former judge is trying to save him. This is the reality of the Congress.
Prasad said that he condemns the Congress, he will not let it succeed.
The ruling party at the center targeted the opposition party, citing the statement of a former High Court judge and currently member of Congress in defense of the arrested diamond trader.
Addressing reporters via video conference, senior BJP leader and Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said that Abhay Thipsay, a retired judge of the Bombay and Allahabad High Court, became a witness in defense of Nirav Modi and claimed that against Nirav Modi No case of fraud and criminal conspiracy will be able to stand before the law. Every effort has been made to save them.
Prasad said that Thipsay joined Congress in 2018 and also met top Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi, Ashok Gehlot and Ashok Chavan.
The Union Law Minister alleged that Thipsay was working on behalf of the Congress, not in his personal capacity.
The BJP leader said that thipsay is not a big name in the legal field.
Prasad alleged, “Such concrete suspicious circumstances exist that we can say that the Congress is doing its best to save Nirav Modi.”
The Union Law Minister claimed that this development has exposed the face of the opposition party, which is always trying to save the fugitive Nirav Modi and his relative Mehul Choksi.
The Union Minister said that Indian investigative agencies will respond effectively to Thipsay’s statement. The senior BJP leader alleged that the Congress tried to save Nirav Modi and Mehul Choksi in every way. Now that he has been arrested, a retired judge associated with the Congress is trying to save him.
He claimed that matters related to Nirav Modi belonged to the rule of Congress.
Prasad said that the Narendra Modi government seized his property (Nirav), auctioned it and is now working towards making him stand in the dock of justice.
Significantly, in February last year, the Government of India sent a request for extradition to the UK Home Department office. He was arrested by Scotland Yard Police on 19 March 2019. He is currently in Wandsworth prison and has not been granted bail despite repeated attempts.
