Wrestler Sushil Kumar was apprehended by Delhi police near Mundka metro station on Sunday morning after being missing for days. Police were looking for the missing wrestler in connection with the murder of Sagar Dhankhar, a former junior national champion, at Chhatrasal Stadium.
Many crime plots were formed at the flat, which was used to shelter criminals from the Jathedi-Lawrence Bishnoi gang.
Kala Jathedi sought Sushil Kumar's assistance in gaining control of toll tax booths in Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, and Haryana.
Sushil Kumar's involvement has also been proved in a recent extortion case reported from New Delhi's Model Town area.
According to the report, fugitive gangster Sandeep alias Kala Jathedi demanded Rs 1 crore in protection money from a cable businessman.
Sushil Kumar is suspected of being behind a ransom call made from an international number, according to investigations.
Sushil, on the other hand, had a falling out with Jathedi over their joint ownership of the Model Town property and had teamed up with jailed gangsters Neeraj Bawana and Naveen Bali.
Connection with Neeraj Bawana gang
According to police sources, Sushil Kumar was accompanied by some Bawana henchmen on the night of the murder.
One of the vehicles, a Scorpio SUV, was seized near the scene of wrestler Sagar Dhankad's death and has been linked to Bawana's henchman, Mohit.
