The Government of India continues to make efforts to get extradited fugitive criminals from foreign countries and for this purpose India has signed extradition treaties and extradition arrangements with several countries.
The Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs) send the extradition proposals to the Ministry of Home Affairs, which after due examination forward them to the Ministry of External Affairs for taking up the matter with the concerned foreign countries as the Ministry of External Affairs is the nodal Ministry for Extradition.
The National Investigation Agency [NIA] has made extradition request for extraditing (1) David Coleman Headley @ Daood Gilani (2) Tahawwur Hussain Rana from USA; Willy Naruenartwanich @ Willy Narue from Thailand; Abdulla Haji @ Haji Abdulla @ Amitab Bachan Haji from Saudi Arabia; and (1) Moideen @ Moideenabba Ummar Byari (2) Abdul Salam @ Podi Salem from UAE.
As a result of efforts made by the Government of India, 59 fugitive criminals have been brought back to India since 2002, to face trial in India.
