One of Mumbai’s most educated gangsters Kumar Pillai, who was detained in Singapore in January, will be brought back to the city on June 27. His extradition was initiated based on one piece of evidence Mumbai Police had against him in the only case he was arrested: Fingerprints, which were 26 years old. A Crime Branch source said Pillai would be kept in high security in their lock up in South Mumbai. A senior crime branch officer said, “All the cases against Pillai will be investigated by Mumbai Crime Branch. He will be kept at the lock up in commissioner’s office at Crawford Market. Later he may be shifted to a different place.”

The cops have also made several security arrangements. Officials from all crime branch units will be deployed for security.
