Punjab Police Pursues Gangsters Abroad Despite Extradition Challenges

Punjab Police is trying to catch criminals who have left India.

Some of these suspects are hiding in other countries.

Baltej Pannu said police are pursuing them even where India has no extradition treaty.

An extradition treaty is an agreement that helps countries transfer suspects to one another.

Pannu said other countries are increasingly cooperating with Punjab Police.

He said this is partly because the gangsters are causing problems in those countries too.

The Punjab government describes its efforts as a campaign against drugs and gangsters.

The report does not provide details about specific arrests or cases.
