Home Minister P Chidambaram today said that India will not handover the dossier of Abu Jundal to Pakistan. Abu Jindal was arrested recently. Talking to reporters in New Delhi, he, however, said that some details of Abu Jundal will be shared with the neighbouring country.
In a reply to another question, the Home Minister said that steps will be taken to bring terror suspect Fasih Mohd to India who was detained in Saudi Arabia recently. He said, Central Bureau of Investigation had issued a red corner notice about him.
What happens when a criminal from India evades arrest and flees to another country? How do we get the person back so that he can stand trial here? In such cases, the country gets in touch with Interpol and asks it to issue a Red-corner notice. If the government knows in which country the criminal is hiding, it asks Interpol to issue the Red-corner notice to that country. A `Red-corner notice' is an arrest warrant circulated by Interpol on behalf of the government of a particular country. It is a request from one country to another to arrest and deport the wanted individual. In the old days, we had `wanted' posters. Nowadays, we have Red-corner notices.
