The UK court on Thursday ruled diamond merchant Nirav Modi will be extradited to India while accepting money laundering charges against him in the Punjab National Bank scam case. The judge said Modi will not be denied justice if he is extradited to India, adding that Barrack 12 at Arthur Road Jail in Mumbai is fit for him.

The court dismissed Modi's "mental health concerns", saying that they are not unusual in a man in his circumstances.

The judge said Modi will be given adequate medical treatment and mental health care at Arthur Road Jail, Mumbai, "There is no risk of suicide for Nirav Modi if he is sent to India as he will have access to adequate medical care at Arthur Road jail," the judge said.

Modi is a wanted diamond merchant, who remains behind bars in a London prison as he contests his extradition to India on charges of fraud and money laundering in the estimated US $2 billion Punjab National Bank (PNB) scam case.
