Efforts to extradite notorious economic offenders such as Nirav Modi and Vijay Mallya from the United Kingdom are gaining significant momentum.

Last week, a team from Britain's Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) visited Tihar Jail, India, to assess the prison conditions and meet legal prerequisites mandated by UK courts.

India is pushing to bring back fugitives involved in serious crimes. The CPS delegation's visit is crucial, as British courts need confirmation that those extradited won't face inhumane conditions.
