Overview

  • Beary was taken into NIA custody upon his June 20 arrival at Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport and produced before a special court in Ernakulam the next day.
  • He faces charges of counterfeiting, cheating and criminal conspiracy for allegedly procuring high-quality fake Indian currency notes in Dubai and smuggling them into India via Sharjah.
  • INTERPOL issued a Red Notice against him on December 30, 2013 at the NIA’s request after four fake-currency cases were registered in Kerala’s Kasaragod district.
  • CBI’s International Police Cooperation Unit collaborated with Abu Dhabi’s National Central Bureau and INTERPOL to geo-locate Beary in the UAE, leading to his 2015 arrest and a formal extradition request.
  • The operation underscores the CBI’s growing effectiveness, having coordinated the return of more than 100 wanted fugitives to India through INTERPOL channels in recent years.
