The industrialist has been arrested in connection with alleged irregularities in the operations of a coking plant in the Bosnian town of Lukavac that he has been co-managing since 2003.
Two other company officials—General Manager Paramesh Bhattacharyya and a member of the supervisory board—were also reportedly arrested. An arrest warrant for a fourth man “considered to be a member of this organised criminal group with Pramod Mittal on top” has also been issued, AFP quoted prosecutor Cazim Serhatlic as saying.
