# ED Deletes Look-Out Circular Against Nirav Modi Case Approver 2026-08-06T14:07:25+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Enforcement Directorate told a special CBI and PMLA court in Mumbai on 5 August 2026 that it had deleted a look-out circular against Maiank Mehta. Issued on 15 June 2018, it had restricted overseas travel. Mehta, Nirav Modi’s brother-in-law, was initially named as an accused and later became an approver. Mehta sought cancellation, citing British citizenship, business responsibilities in Hong Kong and planned travel to Thailand, Vietnam, Australia and Canada. The ED first opposed the request but later informed the court that the circular had been deleted. The court disposed of the application and asked the ED to inform the Bureau of Immigration. ## Coverage - freepressjournal.in Tags: Enforcement Directorate, look-out circular, Mumbai court, Nirav Modi case Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/ed-deletes-look-out-circular-against-nirav-modi-case-approver/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
