This is likely to curb fugitive businessman Nirav Modi's foreign travel — Interpol, on request from the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Enforcement Directorate (ED), has issued a red corner notice (RCN) against the diamantaire in the over Rs 13,700-crore PNB scam case.

An RCN is a request to locate and provisionally arrest an individual pending extradition. Sources in the agency said the RCN was issued against Nirav, his brother Neeshal, and a close associate Subhash Parab, adding that it was likely to keep Nirav at a fixed location and could help the agencies to begin the process of extradition.
