Trader Saurabh Mehrotra faces jail in the UK unless he provides documents relating to a crude oil deal that ended up in London arbitration.
In an October High Court hearing, the son of London-based shipowner Ravi Mehrotra had pledged to repay $6m for which he acted as guarantor, following a court order in June.
The Saurabh Mehrotra is being pursued by Hong Kong’s Heritage Lane Oil & Gas Development and United Arab Emirates-based financier PTPY.
