Uncovering The Diamond King: The Fall Of Nirav Modi

The Diamond King, a true-crime investigative podcast series presented by Telegraph Investigates on Apple Podcasts, chronicles the dramatic rise and fall of former billionaire diamond tycoon Nirav Modi. The narrative spans his journey from building an elite global jewelry empire—highlighted in "All That Glitters" with boutiques in major fashion capitals—to his complete downfall after being accused of masterminding a massive £1.3 billion ($1.8 billion) banking fraud, one of the largest financial scams in India's history. Across subsequent episodes, the podcast details the collapse of his business and global asset seizures ("The Missing Billions"), followed by how Telegraph reporters Mick Brown and Robert Mendick received a tip-off tracking down the world's most wanted fugitive to a secret London hideout ("Catch Me If You Can"). The series culminates in "A Fugitive's Hideout," detailing his arrest at Westminster Magistrates' Court and his ongoing legal battles against extradition.
