Mumbai, Oct 2 (PTI) A 24-year-old history-sheeter wanted for a murder in Tamil Nadu was arrested by Mumbai Police on Wednesday, an official said here.
Chembur unit of the Mumbai crime branch nabbed Chinna Subarao Aynar, a resident of Vellore who has at least eight serious criminal cases registered against him.
While on the run, Aynar had changed his identity and worked with a petrochemical tanker, the official said.
A crime branch team laid a trap for him in the early hours of Wednesday in Vashi naka area after searching 40-odd petrol tankers. Sensing police presence, Aynar tried to run, but a team led by senior police inspector Bharat Ghone nabbed him after a chase, the official added.
A police team from Tamil Nadu reached Mumbai later in the day and took him back to the southern state on transit remand. PTI DC KRK
