New Delhi: Indian police said Tuesday they are seeking custody of a fugitive arrested in Hong Kong who is wanted for a daring jailbreak in Punjab that freed a militant and for a string of other crimes. Ramanjit Singh, an Indian national on Interpol's global watch list, was detained this month by Hong Kong authorities for his alleged involvement in a local robbery, according to local media reports. India's federal police had asked Interpol to issue a red notice for Singh's arrest so he could be extradited and tried for crimes ranging from jailbreak to forgery, attempted murder and financing extremism.
