Gangster Chota Rajan has been arrested in Indonesia. He was a key-Dawood Ibrahim aide once upon a time and later broke away from him.The police in Bali was tipped off by the Australian police about a murderer travelling on an Indian passport as "Mohan Kumar". It soon emerged that Mohan Kumar was an alias used by the 55-year-old crime boss wanted for charges that include contract killing, arms smuggling and extortion. His arrest was on the basis of an Interpol red-corner notice issued against him way back in 1995 for committing criminal acts such as murder, running an organised crime syndicate, conspiracy etc. Sources say Rajan's role is suspected in the assassination of Nepal MP Mirza Dilshad Beg, who was shot dead in Kathmandu in 1988. In recent years, Rajan was known for his boisterous claims, and had a nomadic life, moving from country to country, seeking safe hideout. Many intelligence operatives believed that he was past his prime, and was spending a peaceful life away from the bloodied underworld operations.
