Relief for Lalit Modi, INTERPOL denies extradition request. Next up,

 Mallya's This means that INTERPOL will not arrest him in relation to Indian government’s request for extradition Former Indian Premier League (IPL) chairman Lalit Modi got a major relief when the International Criminal Police Organization or INTERPOL rejected India's request for issuing a red notice against him. This means that INTERPOL will not arrest him in relation to Indian government's request for extradition. Modi served the BCCI in capacity of vice president, Rajasthan Cricket Association (RCA) as its president and is also acknowledged as the founder and architect of the Indian Premier League (IPL). This has come as a major relief to Modi who has been living in London after serious charges of misconduct, indiscipline and financial irregularities were levelled against him in India. The Interpol letter - dated March 24, 2017 - reads, “As of today, Mr Lalit Kumar Modi, born 29 November 2963, is not subject to an INTERPOL Red notice or diffusion and not known in INTERPOL’s database.” It further reads, “INTERPOL is aware that in past the individual was subject of data recorded in INTERPOL’s database, yet the data was later cancelled. Later he posted an emotional message on Instagram thanking his family and friends.
He wrote: “I just got off from a flight from Barcelona through which I sat completely numb. Just as I was boarding the flight I got the news that Interpol had finally investigated and concluded and reached a verdict in my favour with a detailed letter of rejection of India's request for issuing of a red notice. The sword that was hanging over my head had suddenly gone. At first I did know what to do or say.” Lalit Modi's case has been closely watched alongside Vijay Mallya, whose defunct Kingfisher Airlines owes banks over Rs 9000 crore. Mallya who escaped to the UK last year has been in the crosshairs of a number of bureaucratic and court appeals to return home. In a positive development for the Indian government, its request for Mallya's extradition to the British government has been forwarded to a district court judge there. The judge has the right to issue an arrest warrant to Mallya. If the judge does call for Mallya's arrest, then it could possibly mean the former airline chief will find it difficult to evade authorities. Earlier, Mallya had offered to talk with banks for a one-time settlement of dues and sought the SC's intervention
