The High Court in London has refused to reopen Nirav Modi’s extradition case. The decision may end his last legal option in the UK. This clears the way for his return to India after years in custody. The court relied on assurances from the Indian government. It said Modi will not be questioned by five agencies. Judges called these assurances “specific” and given in “good faith”. Modi had cited the Sanjay Bhandari case to argue risk of mistreatment. The court accepted concerns but said the assurances addressed them. The CBI said its team was in London to support the case. Modi has been jailed in the UK since 2019. (PC: HT)
