Does the Indian National Police Force have the ability to persecute the applicant throughout the country?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Singh v. Ilchert, 63 F.3d 1501 (9th Cir. 1995):

This court presumes that in a case of persecution by a governmental body such as a national police force, the government has the ability to persecute the applicant throughout the country. See Damaize-Job v. INS, 787 F.2d 1332, 1336 (9th Cir.1986) (government persecution not limited to one geographical area); Singh, 801 F.Supp. at 321 (noting that "a police force controlled by the national government ... would presumably be capable of locating petitioner in other regions of India" and that "petitioner's ability to avoid further persecution by relocating inconspicuously may be limited by his manner of religious dress and his inability to speak the languages or dialects of other regions of India") (citing Damaize-Job ); cf. Beltran-Zavala v. INS, 912 F.2d 1027, 1030 (9th Cir.1990) (relocation not an option where persecutor is a death squad with "the power to enforce its will").
