PANAJI: Barkat Ali who was absconding for 8 years and settled in Saudi Arabia was finally deported back to India after Riyadh police in Saudi Arabia identified the accused and detained him.
They informed the CBI through Interpol after a red corner notice.
Ali is an accused involved in the 2011 Balli riots case in south Goa, in which two tribal youths were charred to death.
He was produced before the district court in South Goa and was remanded in judicial custody.
In 2022, south Goa principal district and sessions judge Irshad Agha acquitted 13 accused charged by CBI in connection with the two deaths that took place after an agitation by United Tribal Association Alliance in Balli at Quepem in May 2011 turned violent.
