IPL (Indian Premier League) founder, Lalit Modi has been in serious trouble ever since his Vanuatu passport was rejected. Prime Minister Jotham Napat has ordered the Citizenship Commission to cancel his passport citing rejection of the  Indian authorities' request for an Interpol alert due to insufficient evidence. 

“I have instructed the Citizenship Commission to immediately begin proceedings to cancel Mr. Modi's Vanuatu passport,” Napat said in a statement. He added that while background checks haven't shown any criminal records. He was recently informed that Interpol had rejected Indian requests for an alert on Lalit Modi due to insufficient evidence.

He stated that a Vanuatu passport is a privilege, not a right, and definitely won't be used as an excuse for extradition. Mr. Modi left India in 2010 while under investigation for financial misconduct.
