Panaji, Aug 26: Hours after being extradited from Peru, Israeli drug lord Yaniv Benaim alias Atala today told a Goa court that he had fled from India as he feared for his life.
CBI today produced the fugitive, wanted in connection with drug-nexus cases in Goa, before the Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Court (NDPS) that remanded him in 14 days judicial custody.
“People were following me after I got bail. I was told by people that police will kill me. I had no other choice other than to run away,” Atala told the court.
Atala, a prime witness in the drug nexus case involving policemen and kin of politicians exposed last year, said after getting the bail, he was feeling paranoid and was even admitted to the Institute of Psychiatric and Human Behaviour (IPHB) because of depression.
“Even in IPHB I feared for my life,” he said, seeking bail.
