Mehul Choksi team reveals new information related to his abduction claims

Dominica : Mehul Choksi legal team on Thursday claimed that he was abducted by four UK nationals - three of them were of Indian origin - who took him to Dominica from Antigua and Barbuda, where he was enjoying freedom as a citizen of the country.

The legal team led by lawyer Michael Polak said the four had travelled from London to Antigua and Dominica, giving a detailed account of one-and-a-half months of their alleged movement. 

According to a legal agency Justice Abroad, Mehul Choksi's family approached them to look into the matter. "The aim behind alleged abduction of Mehul Choksi was to move him out of Antigua to remove his protection cover," said the agency.

Addressing a press conference, Polak said that back in early April, a UK national called Barabara Jarabic alias Barbara Jose flew from London to Antigua with another individual. Jarabic reportedly then flew to Dominica on a private aircraft with the same individual and stayed there for a few days before coming back to Antigua. The next day both, along with two other individuals, Gurmit Singh and Gurjit Bhandal, flew to London, Polak claimed.

He showed a Customs document mentioning Bhandal and Singh’s names as cleared for entry into Dominica on May 25. He also showed a picture of two men at the port, claiming they were Singh and Bhandal.

Meanwhile, Choksi has claimed that the woman named Barabara had struck a friendship with him and allegedly planned his abduction.
