The government has reiterated its determination to bring back individuals who have evaded Indian law by fleeing the country. This statement comes in response to recent public attention, including a video released around the birthday of Vijay Mallya, a prominent figure among those who have absconded.
The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) emphasized a ‘full commitment’ to pursuing these cases, referring to the individuals as ‘fugitives.’ While no specific timelines were provided, the government signaled its resolve to work towards the extradition of all those facing legal proceedings in India who are currently residing abroad.
The renewed focus on extradition efforts follows public commentary and scrutiny, highlighting the ongoing pursuit of justice in high-profile cases involving financial irregularities and other offenses. The government’s stance underscores its commitment to holding accountable those accused of wrongdoing, regardless of their location.
