After Jundal, CBI tries to get Fasih Mohammed extradited

, Jul 1: After Abu Jundal, it seems to be Fasih Mohammed's turn. The former was deported from Saudi Arabia and immediately taken into custody on landing at the Indira Gandhi International Airport here on Jun 21.

Now the Central Bureau of Investigation is looking at similarly bringing the latter to India. A CBI team could soon go to Riyadh to expedite the process of Fasih Mohammed's extradition as he is also a wanted terrorist.

Bangalore Police had issued a lookout for the 28-year-old in connection with the Chinnaswamy Stadium blast while the Delhi Police believe that Fasih, an engineer, was involved in a shooting incident near the Jama Masjid in 2010.

Acting on the request by CBI, Interpol issued a Red Corner Notice against the accused after which Saudi Arabia said that they have nabbed Fasih.

Incidentally, his wife Nikhat Parveen had recently moved the Supreme Court. She claimed that Indian and Saudi authorities had jointly arrested him on May 13.
