ISLAMABAD: A prisoner being transported to Pakistan from Ecuador has been sent back after he scuffled with the FIA team in Brazil during transit and later in plane refused to go to Pakistan, the Interior Ministry sources have disclosed. Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan has taken serious notice of deportation of a prisoner who was being brought to Pakistan from Ecuador through Interpol but fought with officials in Brazil transit airport from where he was deported back to Ecuador by the Brazilian authorities. Details reveal that Rizwan Habib Alvi was convicted in murder charges in the UK in 2004 and was sentenced to life imprisonment. Alvi was brought to Pakistan under prisoners exchange agreement in 2010 and got out of jail in a few days and fled first to Malaysia and then to Ecuador, the sources revealed. “Now he scuffled with Interpol team at Brazil airport (where they stayed for transit) when he was being brought back to Pakistan from Ecuador,” the sources added. After his refusal to board the plane he was taken back to Ecuador, said the sources. Now a three-member FIA team headed by a deputy director has been sent to take him back to Pakistan. The interior minister took serious action, saying that the prisoner should be brought back at any cost. The sources said that when a prisoner refuses to board a plane, he is deported back to the country from where he is being brought.
