An important decision has been taken in the meeting of the Union Cabinet in the Modi government. Under which the proposed extradition treaty between India and Belgium has been approved. With the implementation of this treaty, both the countries will be able to commit crimes and commit absconding fugitives to each other. The cabinet took this decision on Friday, it was announced on Saturday.
For your information, let us tell you that in the extradition treaty, those accused of the same crimes are taken for whom the law provides for punishment of one year or more. The court of the country involved in the treaty, after considering the extradition application, decides whether the case is fake and repugnant to the accused person. Also human rights are also taken care of.
After the seal of this important treaty, the application for extradition of a person accused in political matters can also be rejected. Belgium's Extradition Treaty with India came into force in 1901 when India was part of the British Empire. It was subsequently renovated in 1958, which is still in effect. But now it has been given a facelift by increasing some crimes.
