Mike Masala now free to return home
TIMES NEWS NETWORK
Panaji: The Goa police have withdrawn the “look out circular” issued against prime witness in the Scarlett Keeling case, Michael Mannion, aka Mike Masala.
This follows a request from the CBI, which had taken over the case recently, to permit Mike to return home to England.
“We have received the CBI letter and withdrawn the circular against Mannion,” said SP (North) Bosco George.
The police had issued the circular on March 11, 2008. Mike had been demanding its withdrawal, stating that he had been detained unlawfully and against his wishes. “The lifting of the circular is a huge relief for the witness. His family was under tremendous stress,” Mike’s counsel Vikram Varma said.
