Mehul Choksi's repatriation stayed by Dominica court

A Dominica court has put a stay on the repatriation of fugitive Mehul Choksi after Choksi's legal team in Dominica filed a habeas corpus petition and highlighted that he was denied legal rights and was not allowed to meet his lawyers initially. Currently, Choksi is in the custody of Dominica Police and is being investigated, police said. Under a habeas corpus petition, an arrested person has to be brought before a judge, especially to secure the person's release "unless lawful grounds are shown for their detention". Choksi's Dominica lawyer Wayne Marshe said it is a "travesty of justice" as Choksi is entitled to legal representation — be it in Antigua or Dominica.

Meanwhile, the acting police chief of Dominica, Lincon Corbette had said that the fugitive businessman, wanted in India in multicrore PNB scam, will be repatriated to Antigua and not to India. Mehul Choksi is facing two cases in Antigua and Barbuda. One deals with his extradition to India and the other concerns revocation of his citizenship.
