In a significant breakthrough, a member of the Vikrant Deshmukh gang who has been wanted in connection with a murder case dating back four years has been arrested in Maharashtra’s Navi Mumbai, according to news agency PTI. The accused identified as Rakesh Janardhan Koli and a few other members allegedly abducted Sachin Garje, a resident of the Nerul area, in September 2019 due to a longstanding feud.
