{ "title": "India Moves to Bring Back Luthra Brothers from Thailand", "article": "India is working closely with Thai authorities to locate and deport Saurabh and Gaurav Luthra, Indian entrepreneurs wanted in a case back home. The move aims to avoid the lengthy extradition process, which has been successful in the past. According to sources, Indian agencies are in touch with their Thai counterparts, leveraging their friendly relations in criminal matters. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is also pursuing a Blue Notice from Interpol to help locate the brothers in Phuket, Thailand. A court in Goa has issued an arrest warrant against the Luthra brothers, who own a popular restaurant in Goa. The CBI's Global Operations Centre (GOC) and other central agencies are working together to geolocate them. The Indian government plans to send the arrest warrant through the Ministry of External Affairs and have the brothers deported to India. India and Thailand have a long history of cooperation in extraditing fugitives. In the past decade, several individuals have been brought back from Thailand, including those involved in financial crimes, terrorism, and cyber crimes. The two countries signed a formal extradition treaty in 2013, which has facilitated cooperation in such matters. The CBI is also investigating whether the Luthra brothers or their family members have moved any funds abroad, including to Thailand. Investigators are reviewing their financial transactions to understand their intentions and potential escape routes. India's efforts to bring back the Luthra brothers are part of a larger initiative to bring back fugitives who have fled the country. In recent years, several individuals have been extradited or deported from abroad, including those accused of financial crimes and terrorism."
