Negotiations to net 'foxes'

CODE-NAMED "FOX HUNT 2014", THE SPECIAL campaign to bring back those suspected of economic crimes who have fled the country has netted hundreds since July.

That is an impressive achievement. But, despite the lack of official statistics, that is the mere tip of an iceberg by any estimate. Not to mention that, with some of the most notorious embezzlers at large, the catch is far from satisfactory.

Rhetorically, multiparty and bilateral agreements on judicial assistance in extraditing suspects of economic and corruption-related crimes have been good so far.
