Indian National Arrested in Germany Charged with Murder of Arizona Girlfriend The arrest of Varun Batchigari in Germany for the murder of his 19 year old girlfriend Julissa Rubi Salazar serves as a sobering reminder that the globalized world can sometimes facilitate rather than hinder the escape of perpetrators.
Batchigari was able to board a flight to India, only to be apprehended with the help of U. S. and German authorities.
This incident is part of a broader pattern in which individuals accused of serious offenses use their nationality or access to technology to evade justice.
