Canada ‘blocked’ extradition requests for NRIs in drugs case
Despite India's efforts to extradite "fugitive NRIs" wanted in a drug and money laundering case, the Canadian government has consistently rejected their requests. The Punjab and Haryana high court records show that Canadian agencies have cited technical discrepancies in the documents as reasons for rejection. The investigation agencies, including Punjab police and the directorate of enforcement, have been searching for these NRIs since 2015-16. Despite providing personal addresses and following proper channels, Canada has been non-cooperative in clearing the extradition process, according to Indian authorities.
