New Delhi: India’s multi-agency team that had gone to Dominica to bring back fugitive businessman Mehul Choksi was headed back home on a Qatar Airways private jet after the island country’s court adjourned the hearing on his habeas corpus petition, reports said.
As the next date of hearing is yet to be fixed and the court proceedings are likely to take time, the long-range private executive jet India had chartered to bring Choksi back left the Caribbean island on Thursday.
However, there are indications that four of the eight members of the Indian team, who were on the Qatar Executive Bombardier Global jet when it took off for Dominica on Thursday last week, are staying put to track proceedings in the court.
The diamantaire, who is facing possible deportation to India, is being heard by two courts of Dominica in two separate matters. Sources said, till the time both the cases are not settled, Mehul Choksi won’t be deported to India.
