India's Modi: cooperation with Swiss on tax-evasion fight

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi says his country and Switzerland have a "shared priority" in fighting tax evasion and the practice of squirreling away "black money" in Swiss banks.

Modi spoke Monday to reporters alongside Switzerland's president in a brief stop in Geneva as part of a five-country trip. Modi's next stop is Washington.

The Indian leader pointed to "the need for an early and expeditious exchange of information to bring to justice the tax offenders."
