Yes, Nirav Modi's uncle, fugitive jeweller Mehul, who earlier, believed to be in Antigua has left the Carribean country now, said agencies. The key accused Mehul and his nephew Nirav were the main accused who involved in the Rs 13,600 crore scam case and after the scam come to light both were on run. Recently, the news comes to light that Mehul has taken the citizenship of Antigua but now once again he moved to another country to save himself.
