The CBI on Monday transferred 20 officials, including the investigating officer of the case probing the Rs 13,500 crore Punjab National Bank (PNB) involving fugitive diamentaire Nirav Modi and Mehul Choksi of the Gitanjali group.

According to an official order, S.K. Nair, who was investigating the case against Nirav Modi and Choksi, was transferred to ACB Mumbai.
