After arresting him, they asked us to send Adhikary s photographs. The identity of the KLO leader was established on the night of February 7. Officials from the Union Ministry of Home Affairs and we started talking with Nepal Police as India does not have an extradition treaty with Nepal. We requested Nepal Police not to show Adhikary s arrest in Nepal because had it been done there, bringing him to our territory would have been an impossible task, said a source in Bengal Police.
