.....Ind., 19-6-.1962,Pt. II, S. 2, Extra, p. 418. Act 66 of 1993.- At present, the Law of Extradition in India is contained in the Extradition Act, 1962 (Act 34 of 1962). The 1962-Act made a distinction between commonwealth countries and foreign States and considered only foreign States as treaty States. The extradition with Commonwealth countries was separately governed by the second Schedule of the Act and the Central Government was given powers under Chapter III to conclude special extradition arrangements with respect to Commonwealth countries only. Such distinction made in the Extradition Act, 1962 between foreign States and Commonwealth countries does not hold good in view of the change of time and rapid developments in Extradition Law at international level. Commonwealth countries are concluding extradition treaties among themselves. India has in recent years concluded separate extradition treaties with Canada and U K.. Moreover, the Civil Law countries have specific requirements for purposes of extradition with them. In addition; terrorisrim and drug trafficking as two most heinous crimes affecting innocent lives, have thrown new challenges necessitating changes in.....
