The U.K. High Court has denied India's request to appeal the discharge of arms dealer Sanjay Bhandari's extradition. Bhandari, accused of tax evasion and money laundering, successfully contested his extradition by highlighting potential risks of extortion and violence in Tihar Jail, as well as concerns over an unfair trial in India. The court found merit in these arguments, leading to his discharge. India's subsequent attempt to appeal this decision was rejected, effectively ending the extradition proceedings. This outcome underscores the challenges faced by Indian authorities in securing the return of individuals facing serious charges abroad. (PC: India TV News)
