Gang leaders behind crimes in trains held

NEW DELHI - Two rival gang leaders and two others, allegedly involved in several crimes in trains running on the Delhi-Mumbai route, have been arrested, police said Sunday.

Gang leader Sunil Bihari was arrested from Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium while his rival Teja, along with his aides Kuldeep and Deepak, was arrested from INA Market last week.

“Their gangs are notorious for robberies, pick-pocketing and drug trafficking on the Delhi-Mumbai railway network,” a police official said.

With the arrest of Bihari, a murder case registered against him was also solved, police said.

“We have solved the murder of Santosh, a member of Teja gang, who was killed by Bihari April 8 near the New Delhi railway station,” the police official said.
