UK has no intention of becoming a place where those seeking to evade justice can hide: British Security Minister

Tugendhat, without citing specific cases, told PTI that legal processes must be adhered to in matters relating to extradition.

NEW DELHI | The United Kingdom has no intention of becoming a place where those seeking to evade justice can hide, British Security Minister Tom Tugendhat said, amid India's continuing push for extradition of billionaire fugitives Vijay Mallya and Nirav Modi.

Tugendhat, without citing specific cases, told PTI that legal processes must be adhered to in matters relating to extradition.

"We both (the UK and India) have legal processes that must be gone through. But the UK government is absolutely clear, we have no intention of becoming a place where those who are seeking to evade justice can hide," he told PTI in an interview.
