While ‘n’ number of reports are doing the rounds about underworld don Chhota Rajan, he himself wants to say something. He said that he neither surrendered nor does he want go to Zimbabwe. Instead, he wants to return to India.
There is intense speculation about Chhota Rajan, who has been arrested after being on the run for over two decades, that his arrest was part of a "deal" with security agencies in India.
The gangster was arrested in a popular Indonesian tourist destination on a Red Corner Notice issued by Interpol.
Rajan, who is wanted in more than 70 crimes in India ranging from murder, extortion to smuggling and drug trafficking, told reporters: "I never surrendered. I want to go back to India. Don't want to go to Zimbabwe."
Out of these cases, Rajan is facing four cases under Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act (TADA), one under Prevention of Terrorism Act (POTA) and over 20 cases under the stringent Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA).
He was once the most trusted aide of terrorist and crime boss Dawood Ibrahim.
A team of officials would soon be sent to Bali to bring back the gangster who is in custody since Sunday.
There is no news about the exact arrangements to bring him back because of security concerns arising out of his fierce rivalry with underworld don Dawood Ibrahim and his gang.
They said agencies are working on more than one plan to bring back 55-year-old Rajan.
Rajan was travelling with the identity of Mohan Kumar with passport number G9273860 when he was apprehended at the airport in Bali, after arriving there on a Garuda Indonesia flight GA715, by the Indonesian Police on a tip off from Australian authorities.
