New Delhi, Nov 3 Two alleged extortionists working
for gangster Munna Bajrangi were today arrested by the Delhi
Police from Mumbai and Varanasi.
Miraj Hussain was arrested from Varanasi and Iftikhar
Sheikh was nabbed in Mumbai by separate teams of Delhi
Police's Special Cell, according to a senior official of the
department.
He said Sheikh was allegedly looking after Bajrangi
gang's extortion racket in Mumbai while Miraj was looking
after the same in Varanasi.
Bajrangi, a close aide of politician Mukhtar Ansari, was
caught by a joint team of Delhi Police's Special Cell and
Uttar Pradesh Police on October 29 this year in connection
with the murder of a BJP MLA from Uttar Pradesh Krishnanand
Rai in 2004 in Mumbai.
The elusive gangster was staying under a fake name Prem
Singh in Malad in the western metropolis. - (Agencies)
