IP Buenos Aires also mentioned that the Extradition Request along with Spanish translation must be in accordance with the Argentinian Extradition Act and must reach the Government of Argentina within 30 days from the date of Ottavio Quattrocchi\u2019s detention.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0Immediately, on the same day, CBI responded confirming the same. CBI also requested IP Buenos Aires to indicate the legal requirements for extradition in the absence of a formal Extradition Treaty between India and Argentina.\n<\/p>\n<p> \u00a0  <\/p>\n<p>* Laid on the Table\u00a0and also placed on the Library.\u00a0See No. LT \u20135801\/07.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0Thereafter, CBI diligently started preparing the extradition request. CBI availed of the services of translators, including that of the School of Foreign Languages, JNU, New Delhi, for the translation of statement\/documents required for extradition request.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 On 12.2.2007, the detention of Ottavio Quattrocchi in Argentina was  <\/p>\n<p>confirmed through diplomatic channels.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0On 13.2.2007, CBI wrote to MEA for a copy of Argentinian Extradition Act with English translation and list of documents to be incorporated in the extradition request. As there is no Extradition Treaty between India and Argentina, CBI also sought MEA\u2019s advice as to how to overcome this problem in the legal framework of Argentinian extradition law. CBI also requested MEA to ascertain the convenience of Argentinian authorities for the visit of CBI team in this connection.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0On 13.2.2007, CBI sent a communication to IP Buenos Aires asking for certain informations\/documents, namely, a copy of the Argentinian Extradition Act with English translation; list of documents to be incorporated in the extradition request; the procedure to be followed in the absence of Extradition Treaty between India and Argentina. CBI also asked IP Buenos Aires whether it should send its team to Argentina and, if yes, the date thereof.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 On 13.2.2007, IP Buenos Aires informed CBI that Ottavio Quattrocchi had been detained in the Province of Misiones and indicated the requirements of Argentinian extradition law.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0On 16.2.2007, CBI received a communication through diplomatic channels, inter alia, indicating that even though India and Argentina did not have an Extradition Treaty, yet India could make a request for extradition of Ottavio Quattrocchi under the Argentinian law; that the matter was presently pending in the court of Misiones province; that court had appointed Dr. Carlos Guilleremo Daneri, Public Prosecutor, on behalf of Government of India and that India would have to give an offer of reciprocity for seeking extradition of Ottavio Quattrocchi etc. After the preparation of extradition request, CBI held a meeting with the officers of Legal and Treaty Division of MEA on 22.2.2007, and got the draft extradition request vetted.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0It may be mentioned that Non Bailable Warrant against Ottavio Quattrocchi dated 6.2.1997 was issued by the Court of Special Judge, Delhi under various provisions of law, including that of the Prevention of Corruption Act. However, in view of the orders dated 4.2.2004 and 31.5.2005, passed by the Hon\u2019ble Delhi High court, the proceedings against public servants and certain other accused persons had been quashed. To effect the extradition of Ottavio Quattrocchi and to fulfill the requirements of Argentinian Extradition Law, it was felt necessary to seek a fresh warrant of arrest against Ottavio Quattrocchi which was obtained from CMM, Delhi on 24.2.2007.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0CBI sent the extradition request to the Government on 24.2.2007 for completing required diplomatic and legal formalities.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 Mr. Speaker Sir, from the above information made available by the CBI, it would be-evident that CBI has been diligently preparing for making an extradition request in accordance with the provisions of Argentinian law and within the stipulated time of 30 days for making the request. The fact that the extradition request prepared by the CBI in accordance with the procedure and substantive provisions of Argentinian extradition law, comprising about 300 pages, itself indicates that this voluminous documentation has been prepared within the quickest possible time frame. Further, as according to Argentinian law, the extradition request and accompanying documents have to be in Spanish language, the Spanish translators available in Delhi, including those from one of our leading Universities, were pooled. The translation work, being technical in nature, was time consuming. Even so, the translation work has been completed at the earliest.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0We have been informed on 26.2.2007 at 7.43 pm that Ottavio Quattrochhi has been released on bail from preventive detention by the Federal Court in Argentina, with the condition that he will not leave Argentina. This will have no bearing on the extradition proceedings being initiated by our Government.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0The Government is processing the request of extradition with utmost urgency and a CBI team is scheduled to reach Buenos Aires well before the expiry of the stipulated 30 days time.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0UPA Government is fully committed to the autonomy of CBI and will render all possible assistance for the performance of its functions.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0  <\/p>\n<p>_________   <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0\u2026( Interruptions)\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0  <\/p>\n<p><a class=\"marker_ref\" href=\"\/search\/?formInput=MR.%20SPEAKER\">MR.
