The Mumbai police have finally got hold of gangster Ravi Pujari, who faces 49 cases in the city, nearly a year after the underworld operative was extradited from Senegal. The police team bringing him from Bangalore was expected to reach the city in the early hours of Tuesday.

Sources said the anti-extortion cell of the Crime Branch got the custody of Pujari, a former aide of arrested underworld don Chhota Rajan, in over 10 cases, including the 2016 Gajalee firing.
