New Delhi: A criminal sentenced to life imprisonment for murder, who absconded after being granted parole in 2018, has been arrested after six years of evading authorities. During his time on the run, the accused assumed a new identity and built a notorious reputation as a mafia figure on the Bihar-Nepal border, engaging in extensive smuggling activities. His involvement in several cases under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act kept him under radar of police officials, but he continued to evade capture.Three-month chase leads to arrestThe breakthrough in this long-running manhunt came after Jodhpur Range Inspector General (IG) Vikas Kumar and his team led a relentless pursuit.
