New Delhi: A day after the details about the whereabouts of fugitive diamantaire Mehul Choksi came to light, the Central Bureau of Investigation on Wednesday wrote a letter to Antiguan authorities.

The letter which was written on Wednesday seeks more details regarding Choksi’s whereabouts.

The Interpol authorities had informed India about Choksi’s latest whereabouts and told that he had moved to Antigua from the US and has taken a passport of Caribbean country.

In response to diffusion notice issued by Interpol, the Enforcement Directorate has been informed by Antiguan authorities that Choksi arrived there this month and had taken the passport of that country, they said.

Choksi had fled the country in the first week of January, nearly a fortnight before weeks before country's biggest banking fraud surfaced.

The CBI has booked Choksi, uncle of his alleged partner in crime Nirav Modi, in two cases related to the scam and filed charge sheet against him.

A special court in Mumbai has issued a Non-Bailable Warrant against him.
