Absconders Mehul Choksi and Nirav Modi have been all over the news for the past few months and the government is trying to extradite them. Recently, the Maharashtra government declared that Modi and Choksi’s bungalow in Raigad and Alibaug should be demolished.
However, the demolishing of the bungalows isn’t associated with the money-laundering but is being brought down due to a violation of Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) regulations.
