Most-wanted gangster Amritpal ‘Amrit Dalam’ detained at Moldova border on Interpol Red Notice
Legal and diplomatic procedures are now underway to secure his extradition or deportation to India
Amritpal Singh, alias Amrit Dalam, a most-wanted gangster linked to the Jaggu Bhagwanpuria gang, has been detained at the Moldova border on the basis of an Interpol Red Notice issued at the request of Punjab Police in coordination with central agencies.
Punjab Director General of Police Gaurav Yadav said Amritpal Singh is wanted in multiple serious criminal cases in Punjab and had been absconding abroad for a considerable period. The DGP said the detention was made possible due to sustained international coordination and persistent follow-up by Punjab Police with global law enforcement agencies.
Legal and diplomatic procedures are now underway to secure his extradition or deportation to India so that he can face the law, he added.
According to the police, the Overseas Fugitive Tracking Cell (OFTEC) of Punjab Police is currently pursuing 61 fugitive gangsters hiding in different countries. The detention of Amrit Dalam marks a significant step in the ongoing efforts to trace and bring back offenders who have fled abroad to evade justice.
