Indian-born Tycoon

It appeared to be the coup de grace of a Canadian dirty money probe into real estate: a sprawling island manor off the coast of Vancouver that the government said was linked directly to an alleged criminal conspiracy at a state-run Indian bank.

An Indian-born business tycoon has spent a whopping 50 million pounds to transform a decaying town house into a mega mansion in the heart of London.

The Indian-born tycoon defended a last-ditch deal with France's Socialist government as "fair" in which ArcelorMittal would keep 629 jobs and invest at least 180 million euros ($234 million) over five years at the plant.
