MCA prepares a list of offenders to prevent them from fleeing country

Former Jet Airways promoter Naresh Goyal and his wife Anita are on the list, sources said

Widening its probe against economic offenders, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs has prepared a list of 20 individuals and requested the Intelligence Bureau (IB) to not allow them to flee the country.

The move comes in the wake of several such instances where offenders had fled the country soon after the investigation was launched.

“The list was prepared in the last week of April. We have shortlisted those on our radar and against whom investigations are on,” said a government source in the know.

The IB is learnt to have issued look out circulars against most of them.
