He was formally arrested by the Bihar Police team and produced before a court for further legal proceedings.Rahul was found involved in cases of murder, attempt to murder, extortion, robbery, Arms Act violations, NDPS Act offences and several other cases under the Uttar Pradesh Gangster Act.He has been booked in at least 31 criminal cases across Uttar Pradesh over the last two decades, the officer said.”Rahul’s criminal journey began when he was in class 12. Following his first arrest, he abandoned his studies and joined the illegal narcotics trade. His failure to secure stable work in Jamshedpur led him deeper into crime,” the DCP said.He gradually built a fearsome reputation as a contract killer and extortionist, expanding his network to Varanasi, Jaunpur, Ghazipur, Chandauli, Bhadohi, and Deoria, the officer said.His association with Rakesh Giri, another gangster from Bihar who he met in jail, led to his eventual involvement in the Aurangabad murder case, he added.
