Christian Michel s extradition was done entirely in accordance with the extradition treaty: Centre
New Delhi:
Rejecting the opinion of the Working Group on Arbitrary Detention calling for immediate release of AgustaWestland VVIP chopper deal case accused British national Christian Michel, India on Friday said the conclusions drawn by the UN panel are based on limited information, biased allegations and an inaccurate understanding of its criminal justice system.
India also made it clear that the Working Group is not a judicial body, and therefore, its opinions are not legally binding on the member states.
AFP on Thursday reported that the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention (WGAD) found that Christian Michel, who has been held in India since December 2018 after being extradited from the United Arab Emirates, was being detained arbitrarily .
