Following confirmed reports that the accused in the Pantheerankavu domestic violence case in Kerala reached Germany in his attempts to evade the investigators, the police have started the legal proceedings to bring him back to the country with the support of international crime investigation agencies.
A Blue Corner notice was issued by Interpol on May 17 following a request sent through the Ministry of External Affairs to locate the accused in Germany, verify his identity and other related information as part of the continuing investigation.
According to police sources, Rahul. P. Gopal, the accused in the case, left the country soon after the case was taken up by a special investigation team (SIT). The 29-year-old reportedly boarded a flight from the Bengaluru airport to reach Singapore first and then leave for his workplace in Germany, they said.
