Demolition of vast illegal portions of another sprawling bunglow has begun. About two months after the Supreme Court threw out his plea against a Bombay high court (HC) order, businessman Ashok Mittal started demolishing illegal portions of his bungalow which is palatial portion. Nirav Modi's posh bungalow on Kihim beach in Alibaug, Maharashtra was demolished through a controlled explosion with dynamites Friday by the office of the district Collector of Raigad. This was the same mansion where Nirav Modi used to host lavish parties of high-profile people, say reports. Earlier, the authorities had removed Nirav Modi's belongings from the building.

Earlier, the authorities had removed Nirav Modi's belongings from the building. Nirav Modi, along with his maternal uncle Mehul Choksi, has been accused of defrauding state-owned Punjab National Bank of Rs 13,700 crore. The bungalow was part of the properties attached by the Enforcement Directorate (ED). Though the ED had objected to the demolition, the HC gave a go-ahead to the Raigad district collector to raze the building. Nirav Modi had violated the CRZ rules.
