<h1>Extradited suspect still detained after serving sentence; family asks UK to press India over new life-term forgery charge</h1> The detainee, extradited from the UAE in 2018 in a high-value helicopter procurement scandal, remains in Indian custody despite having served the maximum sentence for the offense underpinning his extradition; an Indian court denied his release pending resolution of an additional forgery charge that carries potential life imprisonment. His family met a UK Foreign Office minister and has sought UK government intervention, including a request to involve the International Court of Justice, arguing India is breaching the extradition terms by prosecuting beyond the extradition remit. UK authorities say they continue consular assistance and have raised the case with Indian counterparts; prior domestic courts granted bail which has not been activated.
