Barbara Jabarica the alleged girlfriend of fugitive Mehul Choksi has revealed that she is not his girlfriend. She said that she is a European and she does not follow Indian news and was not aware of Choksi’s background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I’m European, I live in Europe and I’m not following Indian news. I’m also not following list of fraudsters so I haven’t been aware of his real name and background until last week. And I believe most people in Antigua…I don’t think anyone knew his name or background,” Barbara Jabarica told ANI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also disclosed that Choksi had introduced himself as Raj to her. She said, “I know him (Mehul Choksi) since last August and met with him in Jolly Harbour when I rented Airbnb accommodation near where he also lives. He introduced himself as Raj. Between August to April, he was always texting me but I replied to him once a month.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Barbara, Choksi made a lot of effort to convince her to join the diamond business with him. She also spoke to ANI about the much talked about ring, which he reportedly gifted to her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She said, “I wouldn’t say he gifted me, we had a conversation between April and May, he wanted to convince me that I should get involved, we should do business, he will arrange for me and I sell jewellery, diamonds and designs online. He said he had some higher quality diamonds, if I have any private client in New York or the middle east then he can supply and we can have a good profit share.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I think, one of the main purposes from his side, the reason why he gave me this jewellery, he wanted to convince me to get involved with his jewellery business,” said Barbara.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“He lied to his country, clients, to me about his name, background, jewellery and so on. I would question and many people would question now that has he ever said the truth about anything,” added Barbara.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Talking about her relations with Choksi, she said, “I made this clear in a few interviews that I wasn’t his (Mehul Choksi) girlfriend and he’s not my sugar daddy or anything like that. I’ve my own income and business. I don’t need his cash, support, hotel booking, fake jewellery, or anything like that.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
