The Pune police have intensified their efforts to apprehend city-based gangster Nilesh Ghaywal, who is suspected to have fled to the UK on a fraudulently obtained passport. Local authorities have officially reached out to the British High Commission, requesting intervention to detain and deport Ghaywal.
Ghaywal is implicated in several heinous crimes, including murder and extortion, and allegedly sought refuge in the UK where his son resides. His sudden disappearance came shortly after a violent incident involving his associates in Pune's Kothrud area. Police have since filed multiple cases against him.
Officials are probing the details of Ghaywal's visa in the UK, his son's university, and the funding for his education. With Ghaywal's passport now revoked, Pune police have issued a lookout notice and sought international cooperation through Interpol to facilitate his capture.
