The record
Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- Israeli drug dealer Yaniv Benaim, alias Atala, surrendered before a court in Goa on Wednesday after remaining on the run.
- The surrender took place at the court in Mapusa in north Goa around midday, within a September 16 deadline set by the Bombay High Court's Goa bench.
- The court remanded Atala to judicial custody for 30 days in the drug sale case.
- A non-bailable warrant and a look-out circular had earlier been issued against Atala.
- The surrender matters because it brings a long-absconding accused in a drugs case back under the court's control.
What to watch next
- Hearing of Atala's bail application in the Bombay High Court scheduled for September 21.
- Whether the 30-day judicial custody is extended or the case proceeds to trial.
