CBI may finally get Purulia accused

New Delhi: The Central Bureau of Investigation is likely to finally succeed in extraditing Kim Davy, the main accused in the 1995 Purulia arms drop case, from Denmark as the Centre is expected to give an assurance that he will serve any prison term in that country following his possible conviction in India.
Relenting to pressure from Danish authorities, New Delhi may give an executive assurance to Copenhagen that Davy will not be sentenced to death for any offence committed by him in India and that he will be repatriated to Denmark to serve any prison sentence after his trial, official sources said.
During the intervening night of December 17-18, 1995, an AN-26 aircraft flew over Purulia in West Bengal and dropped a cache of assault rifles and ammunition near the Anand Marg headquarters at Anandnagar.
Davy managed to escape and was later traced to Denmark.
