On the one hand, fugitives like Vijay Mallya and Nirav Modi are seeking refuge under the wraps of Britain's complicated law for extradition, while on the other hand, Punjab National Bank's Rs. He is being sought in a Dominican court to be extradited to Antigua after being caught by Dominica's coast guard while fleeing to Antigua in 2014 and now on a boat to Cuba. He is in custody after a Dominican court rejected his bail application. It remains to be seen whether Mehul Choksi will return to India and when.

The clever lawyers stopped

Mehul Choksi has hired Wayne Marsh, a London lawyer who is leading the fight for illegal immigrants and intruders in a Dominican court, and Vijay Agarwal, an Indian lawyer, to provide online arguments and other documents. Mehul's brother Chetan is also in Dominica while his wife Preeti Choksi has made a strong statement in favor of Mehul.

Abduction Theory

Mehul Choksi's wife and lawyer have defended that "in Antigua, a young woman named Barbara Zarabika befriended Mehul and laid a trap. Mehul and Barbara often went to Antigua's Raliyamana beach for morning walks. On May 9, Barbara called Mehul to meet her at home and suddenly some tough Indians and Antigua men came and got into a scuffle with Mehul and kidnapped him. Barbara called the police for help.

The hijackers forcibly beat Mehul, put him in a boat, put the boat (yacht) in their way and fled in another boat, as if the Dominica Coast Guard had infiltrated.

Mysterious Nymph: Barbara Jerabica

Dominica's guards arrested Mehul Choksi for illegally infiltrating Dominica's maritime border. Mehul Choksi told the Dominican police that Barbara had lured me to her house with such a lure that she had succeeded in calling an Indian politician specifically for your help. Mehul went to Barbara's house and was abducted along with Marzood in front of Barbara's eyes. Mehul Choksi was sitting in a suspicious condition with minor injuries in a yacht anchored at Dominica's Taukeri Beni Jetty (Roseu Beach). The police must have caught him just like any other fugitive. Then he found out that this is a big head named Mehul Choksi. According to Mehul, Barbara 'honeytrapped' Mehul to the maritime border of Dominica. 4-year-old Barbara Jebarika can fly both yachts and helicopters. He is a graduate of the London School of Economics and is fond of posh hotels and friendship with the rich. He is a Dominican citizen, but Antigua frequently traps the wealthy.

Mission Cuba failed?

However, Dominica's maritime border guards say they do not believe in the theory that Mehul Choksi was abducted and brought here. Mehul Choksi probably arrived in Dominica late in the evening of May 6 and stayed in the yacht for a day waiting for the setting to go to Cuba. Some documents, papers were spotted trying to throw it into the sea. He was arrested during the checking. If he had been abducted, he would have immediately surrendered. He wanted to flee to Cuba.

Mehul Choksi is not a citizen of Dominica, so now either send him back to Antigua or India, Dominica has those two options. India will demand Mehul's extradition even if he is declared a citizen of Antigua.

Interesting business of the islands

At first glance, we think that it would not matter to the country where he has obtained asylum or second citizenship if the scammer is immediately handed over to his country of origin.

But there are more than 20 islands in the world whose government revenue comes from tourism, money laundering, minimal or zero taxes, as well as infrastructure, prosperity, local employment and development by giving citizenship to rich people from other countries in return for attractive investments. Wants to have one foot on such an island. Even in times of legal crisis, such an island seems to work to shift smoothly.

Follow the rules when you go to stay in a foreign hotel as well as the hotel management is not interested in your character or other verification after you have a valid passport and visa and if you go to do so no one will stay in their hotel.

Dhankubero's refuge

The island's government knows that most of the millionaires are black and white. With extradition or a police complaint, if the island government accepts it, the millionaires will not be attracted to acquiring citizenship by investing heavily in such islands. The message to the world is that even among other millionaires, the island does not have a legal battle or protection. Yes, the applicant should not have a criminal record at the time of applying for citizenship.

The island's economy is run on the citizenship and investment of the rich, and the owners and staff of the coastguards, agencies, boats and transportation, from the police to the rich, are the most corrupt and receive installments from the rich. The government is also funded by the rich and the lawyers. There are camping girls like callgirls from all over the world to be tourism spots. They also employ someone for a government intelligence agency or gang, rival. With all this in mind, Mehul Choksi can give birth to an episode of 'Honeytrap' by Barbara.

Destination Britain

Now the second question may be why besides such islands, why do the scammers of India flee and seek refuge in a leading country like Britain? This is because in Britain, defendants receive more human rights than any other country in the world.

If the accused is found guilty, the Supreme Court, the Home Ministry, the Prime Minister and if there is strength, the Queen can be dragged out for decades begging for mercy. Safety, health care and hygiene in Indian prisons are not up to British standards, for the same reason the accused may delay his extradition. Vijay Mallya and Nirav Modi are still in London as India's prison level is not like Britain's. Yes, this is a multi-million dollar business for that country and its lawyers.

Book on fugitives

London-based investigative journalist Danish and Ruhi Khan in their book 'Escape: True Stories of Indian Fugitives in London' with Mallya, Modi, Iqbal Mirchi, bookie Sanjeev, musician Nadeem, new officer Ravi Shankaran The book sheds light on how Britain has become a 'safe haven', a highly exploratory analysis of how to seek refuge.

... and last but not least, how much investment a foreigner can get in an island like Antigua on what terms.

How to get citizenship

Getting citizenship in Antigua and Bermuda is easy for the rich like Mehul Choksi. The first thing a person has to do is buy a property in his name worth two million dollars which is considered to be his residential address. Two people can also apply for citizenship by buying a property worth લાખ 2 million each.

After doing so, the person has to submit a project to do business in Antigua-Bermuda with an investment of at least ૫ 1.5 million, or if someone has an ongoing business in Antigua-Bermuda and has to sell it, he has to buy it.

A maximum of ૫ 5 million can be invested in such a business. At the same time, a donation of one and a half lakh dollars has to be made to the National Development Fund as well as the University of West Indies. In other words, Antigua-Bermuda's "Citizenship by Investment" would be available for a total of લાખ 5 million (Rs 150 crore).

Compatible with Safe Heaven

A person who obtains citizenship in this way can also include his wife, his children under the age of 20 and parents above the age of 5 in his application. The name of the fianc can also be included if the applicant is already engaged. It is sufficient for the applicant to make a conditional investment.

He does not have a visa interview. He does not need any educational qualification or business experience degree or experience. Antigua-Bermuda visa holders do not need a visa to travel to 180 countries around the world, including the Shenzhen Zone, the UK, and Hong Kong. The most tempting thing is that no matter how much income a person has in other countries of the world, he does not have to pay tax in Antigua-Bermuda. Antigua also has its own tax haven.

Antigua Bermuda is the ninth most favorable island in the West Indies (Caribbean) due to its natural beauty, weather, and visa-free travel. Spread over an area of ​​7 square kilometers, the island has more than 200 white sand beaches.

Top celebrities from America and Europe, players are citizens of this island. Similarly, scammers like Mehul Choksi have already obtained citizenship by investing in such islands in Britain, the West Indies and Europe in order to seek refuge in their country in times of crisis. Yes, the crime should not be registered in the person's name in their country at the time of application. That is why scams are perpetrated after acquiring citizenship.

What is the fate of Mehul now?

It is natural that a person who commits a scam reaches his safe haven before or after a search warrant is issued in his name in his country. It is also true that a person who acquires citizenship on the basis of investment is not given legal asylum for a long time after being declared a fugitive by his country of origin. Mehul Choksi tried to flee to Cuba by sea via Dominica and Was caught. Now a Dominica court has refused to grant him bail. The Prime Minister of Dominica has mentioned Mehul Choksi in his statement as a citizen of India. The same purpose has been used in police and court records.

Not shown as a free citizen of Antigua. Given that Mehul Choksi has been given a judicial right to prove that he was abducted and brought from Antigua, the Antigua government is not in the mood to give him any more asylum. Now it seems that Mehul Choksi's British fugitive Vijay Mallya And Nirav will be extradited sooner than Modi.
