Chhota Rajan now over to CBI

Maharashtra government, which was so far handling all cases against underworld gangster Chhota Rajan, has now handed over to Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), the national investigation agency. This has been done keeping in mind CBI’s expertise in handling such cases.
Rajan, who was arrested in Bali, Indonesia on 25th October after the Bali police was tipped off by Australian police, was deported to India yesterday. He would step foot in the country after 27 years, after he fled to Dubai in 1988, facing serious cases like murder, extortion and drug smuggling.
Rajan, who had expressed his desire to be sent to Delhi and not Mumbai, had stated that some officers in Mumbai police have contacts with Dawood Ibrahim, Rajan’s arch rival and the most wanted man in India, who is the prime accused in 1993 Bombay bombings, which left over 350 dead and 1200 injured.
If reports are to be believed, Rajan has struck a deal with central security agencies, following which all cases against him would be taken out of Maharashtra Police and that he would be lodged outside the state. These involve almost 70 cases that were registered against Rajan, out of which 20 are for murder, four under the Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act, one under the Prevention of Terrorism Act and over 20 cases under the stringent Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act.
