news 2 min read
New Delhi: 62-year-old Mehul Choksi, wanted in the multi-crore rupees PNB scam, filed a complaint with the Commissioner of Police of Antigua and Barbuda naming Barbara Jabarica and others to be involved in his alleged “kidnapping”.
In the five-page complaint dated June 2, Choksi has detailed the ordeal under which he was alleged to have been taken from Antigua to Dominica and the role played by Barabara.
He noted, “During this entire ordeal, Ms. Jabarica did not even attempt to help me or assist in any other way by calling for help from outside” and “she was an integral part of this entire scheme to kidnap me”.
He said he was taken from her house by “8-10 heavily muscled men” who appeared from all the “entrances” and claimed to be Antiguan police. The men, Choksi in the complaint said, “continued to beat me mercilessly with bare hands” and took his cell phone, Rolex watch, and wallet.
He explained how he was taken using a boat on which there “appeared to be 2 Indians onboard and 3 persons of Caribbean descent”.
He also made several allegations in the complaint that “he was brought to a special location to give an interview to high ranking Indian politician” and his “citizenship would be fixed..would be soon repatriated to India”.
He pointed out that he was received by a “battery of police with Chief of police on the port” in Dominica and was caught because of the Interpol red corner notice. He also mentioned the conditions at the “holding cell” in the police station he was lodged which he said, “did not even have the basic necessities of a mattress and was barely 20 square feet in size”.
Over the weekend the Gaston Browne, Prime Minister of Antigua and Barbuda confirmed that he has sent the complaint to his country’s police authorities. Choksi languishes in Dominica even as the case – his petition of habeas corpus, illegal entry into the country and bail application is taken by the courts of the country.
