A civic conservancy worker, who moonlighted as a gangster for money, was arrested by the crime branch recently. The cops recently arrested five Guru Satam gang members, including the worker, for making extortion calls to builders and businessmen. The police have revealed that the other four gang members, too, cited money as the reason for their getting into extortion.

Need for money
Bharat Solanki, a BMC employee, earned around Rs 25,000 a month, but needed more money to support his family. He met Bhushan Satam, son of Guru Satam (he is currently in jail in an extortion case), who asked him to get in touch with his father who could arrange some job for him.
