Baldev Singh Deol, who was seen at his home in Wolverhampton in the West Midlands region of England, cannot be arrested because extradition papers are yet to be processed by the Indian authorities, UK police said yesterday. Deol is wanted in connection with the murder of 54-year-old Ranjit Singh Power, an Indian-origin hotelier from Wolverhampton who went missing on a visit to India in May 2015.
While his body is yet to be recovered, his disappearance is being treated as murder. "This is an Indian police investigation. As yet, West Midlands police haven't received any formal request for extradition proceedings," a West Midlands spokesperson said. Taxi driver Sukhdev Singh remains in custody after police said he confessed to the killing, but police want to arrest Deol to question him on his role. "Of course, I'm in the UK. Don't worry about it darling, I'm here," Deol told The Times over phone.
