Nirav Modi was trying for Vanuatu citizenship: UK judge

At the bail hearing of fugitive Nirav Modi, his lawyer Clare Montgomery QC had put forward a bail security offer of up to £1 million. However, the UK judge refused to accept and said, "He was attempting to become a citizen of Vanuatu and that is some way away for someone trying to run businesses, which may indicate he has interest to move away from India at this important time".
