Belgium's Court of Cassation will hear fugitive diamond trader Mehul Choksi's appeal against extradition on December 9. The Antwerp Court of Appeals previously ruled his extradition to India enforceable, rejecting claims of unfair trial risks. Choksi, accused in a Rs 13,000 crore PNB scam, fled India in 2018 before the fraud was discovered.
