Purulia arms drop case: Why Denmark denied India’s extradition request for Niels Holck
A Danish court has denied India’s request to extradite Niels Holck, accused of a 1995 arms smuggling case in West Bengal. The decision cites potential human rights violations under the European Convention. Despite Holck’s admission of involvement, prior Danish courts have similarly denied extradition due to concerns over possible inhumane treatment in India.
