If rules aren't meant to be bent can you explain why the Home Office is trying it's best to stop the extradition of economic fugitives like Vijay Mallya and Lalit Modi? https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/04/28/india-asks-britain-to-deport-vijay-mallya/ https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/04/28/india-asks-brita... https://www.business-standard.com/article/international/uk-rejects-india-s-request-to-extradite-vijay-mallya-twice-117110500157_1.html https://www.business-standard.com/article/international/uk-r...
