BEFMPE SECURE A RESPONSE
ANY NEWS? THE MATTER IS BECOMING URGENT. WE SHOULD BE MOST GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD DEPLOY WHATEVER MEANS SEEM LIKELY
FROM THE INDIAN ATTORNEY GENERAL.

2. ON BACKGROUND, UNLESS MIRCHANDANI AND THANDANT CAN BE TRIED
TOGETHER IT IS VERY LIKELY THAT THE FORMER (PRINCIPAL VILLAIN)
WILL BE ABLE TO OFFLOAD CRIMINAL RESPONSIBILITY ON THE LATTER.
JOINT TRIAL AND THE CHANCES OF A CONVICTION OF MIRCHANDANI (WHOSE
EXTRADITION FROM ALASKA S IMMINENT) IS NOW SERIOUSLY THREATENED
BY THE LACK OF RESPONSE TO OUR AND YOUR REPEATED ENQUIRIES DIRECTED
TO THE HINDIAN ATTORNEY GENERAL.
3. WE SHOULD BE MOST GRATEFUL TO LEARN OF ANY PROGRESS.
