Param Bir Singh's mysterious disappearance bears uncanny similarities to Vijay Mallya, Nirav Modi, Mehul Choksi - who all managed to flee India dodging top agencies like the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Enforcement Directorate (ED) and the Police.
The Enforcement Directorate claimed that the banks and the government exchequer have realised 58 per cent out of the total fraud perpetrated in two of the country's biggest criminal bank loan heist cases till date.
According to the agency, the latest sale proceeds take the total value of recovery to Rs 9,041.5 crore, or 40 per cent of the over Rs 22,000 crore allegedly defrauded by the trio.
Investigation has also proved, says the ED, that these three accused persons used dummy entities controlled by them for rotation and siphoning off the funds provided by the banks.
"ED not only attached/ seized assets worth of Rs 18,170.02 crore (80.45 percent of total loss to banks) in case of Vijay Mallya, Nirav Modi and Mehul Choksi under the PMLA but also transferred a part of attached/ seized assets of Rs 9,371.17 Crore to the PSBs and Central Government," the ED said in a tweet.

A consortium of Indian banks led by the State Bank of India (SBI) on Tuesday moved a step closer in their attempt to recover debt from loans paid out to Vijay Mallya’s now-defunct Kingfisher Airlines after the High Court in London upheld an application to amend their bankruptcy petition, in favour of waiving their security over the embattled businessman’s assets in India.
