A special court has denied Mehul Choksi's request for documents related to the suspension of his passport, citing claims that he cannot return to India due to a 'security threat'. Choksi, who is accused in a significant scam involving the Punjab National Bank, has been fighting extradition from Antigua. While the court rejected his passport-related plea, it approved his request for investigation files that could help determine if he should be declared a Fugitive Economic Offender (FEO). The Enforcement Directorate is pursuing this declaration, alleging that Choksi and his nephew Nirav Modi defrauded the bank of Rs 13,400 crore. Choksi maintains that he has not left India to evade prosecution and is unable to return due to circumstances beyond his control.
