‘Belief that Indian law can’t reach fugitives ending’ | India News

Date:

New Delhi: Integrating passport issuance with law enforcement, creating a comprehensive database of fugitives and special focus groups to handle extraditions and economic offenders were some of the measures proposed by home minister Amit Shah to tackle transnational crimes, reports Rajshekhar Jha.Addressing a CBI-organised conference, Shah said the Modi govt was striving to bring every fugitive involved in economic, cyber, terrorist incidents, or organised crime before the law with a ruthless approach.“We can’t secure the country until those sitting abroad who harm the nation’s economy, sovereignty and security fear the Indian justice system. The belief among fugitive criminals that Indian law can’t reach them is now ending. A database of fugitives should be created, detailing their crimes, locations, networks and extradition status,” he added.
