Portugal court asks Abu Salem to amend petition challenging extradition
Media reports say the court has asked Salem to make the External Affairs Ministry of Portugal and the country's Attorney General the respondents in the case.
Salem, currently facing trial in connection to the 1993 Mumbai serial blasts, was deported to India in 2005.
He has moved the Portugal court seeking a direction to the government to execute the order cancelling his extradition.
The gangster was sentenced to life imprisonment by a special TADA court in connection with the murder of a builder in 1995.
