Kim Davy could be extradited to India

New Delhi, April 13: The prime accused in the infamous Purulia arms-dropping case, Kim Davy, is likely to be extradited from Denmark by July-end and will serve his prison term in India if proven guilty.

Government sources said Denmark has informed authorities here that the 47-year-old Davy, alias Niels Holck, will be extradited within next two to three months following completion of the legal process and after India replies to certain queries of the Nordic country.

Copenhagen has also conveyed to New Delhi that they would have no objection to Davy serving his prison term in India if convicted in a court of law here, sources said.

Denmark is believed to have asked India on the nature of punishment likely to be awarded to its national if he is convicted in the case.

Davy was arrested in Copenhagen on Saturday.
