BJP alleges Cong 'protecting' fugitive businessman Nirav Modi

The ruling BJP on Thursday alleged that the Congress party was trying "its best” to protect fugitive businessman Nirav Modi, by engaging a retired judge who joined the opposition party, to stall diamond merchant’s extradition to India. Law minister Ravi Shankar Prasad cited the statement of a former high court judge, in Nirav Modi’s defence in a UK court, at an online press conference.
