India Refused to Take Back Illegal Migrants Due to Nirav Modi Extradition Issue

The Indian government has refused to take back thousands of illegal Indian migrants from Britain due to the UK's failure to extradite fugitive jeweller Nirav Modi. This was revealed by former UK home secretary Priti Patel, who stated that the Indian government had refused to take back the migrants because the UK had not extradited Modi. Patel's comments come in the fourth episode of the Diamond King podcast, a new four-part series on Nirav's rise and fall. The issue has significant implications for the relationship between India and the UK, and has sparked a new round of tensions between the two countries.
