The BJP-led government appears to be in no hurry to seek the extradition of fugitives like Vijay Mallya and Nirav Modi (“‘Bring back at least one fugitive’”, July 26). Nor does it seem to have made any serious attempts to trace their whereabouts, other than issuing red corner notices. It is dismaying to note from media reports that Nirav Modi has in his possession at least six passports. This makes it clear that he has gone beyond the radar of investigating agencies. This reflects poorly on the competence of Indian investigators in tracking him down, leave alone bringing him back to India.
