A police team from Thane in Maharashtra has gone to Prague in the Czech Republic to extradite a man hailing from Gujarat in connection with the murder of a United States model in February 2003, an official said on Monday.
Notably, the Bombay High Court had issued a non-bailable warrant against U.S. citizen Pranesh Desai and his friend Vipul Patel, who is currently in Prague, for failing to appear for hearings on an appeal challenging their acquittal in the case.
Hence, a team led by a deputy commissioner of police left for Prague on Saturday to get Mr. Patel, the official from Kashimira police station said.
