New Delhi: India has talked tough to Denmark on the extradition fiasco of Kim Davy, the main accused in the Purulia arms dropping case. Sources say, Copenhagen is obliged to ensure that Davy, a terrorist and a gunrunner, doesn't get shelter in Denmark.
India has also warned Denmark of similar non-cooperation with respect to Indian criminals wanted by Danish authorities, if it doesn't ensure Davy's extradition to face trial here.
The warning of reciprocal action comes after the Danish government has pleaded helpness in appealing to the Supreme Court against the High Court decision.
The Ministry of External Affairs has issued an official reaction.
In its note, the MEA said, "We have been greatly disappointed on being informed that the Danish authorities cannot comply with India's request for the extradition of Neils Holck alias Kim Davy to India. It is regrettable that they (Danish government) have decided not to appeal the High Court judgement. In our view, the judgement has grave implications and can only serve as an encouragement to terrorists and criminals. We also reject the grounds cited by the Danish court as the basis for its decision."
