New Delhi: India has responded strongly to fugitive businessman Mehul Choksi’s claims that he would face “inhumane conditions” if sent back to the country. To counter these allegations, Indian authorities have shared recent photos of Mumbai’s Arthur Road Jail with the Belgian government, where Choksi’s extradition case is being heard.

Officials said these photos prove that Indian prisons maintain basic human rights standards and provide inmates with all necessary facilities.
