The Ahmedabad Crime Branch on Monday took the custody of Gangster Ravi Pujari from a Bengaluru prison regarding a 2017 shooting case, in which a city councilor of Borsad town of Anand locale in Gujarat was assaulted purportedly at his command, authorities said.

Around 20 criminal cases, including of coercion and endeavor to kill, were enlisted against Pujari in Gujarat alone, said Chaitanya Mandlik, a senior police official.

Of these, the Ahmedabad Crime Branch is researching 14 cases, he said.

Pujari was held up in a prison in Bengaluru following his removal to India from Senegal last year.

“We had looked for his care to examine his job in the 2017 shooting case in Borsad town,” said Mr Mandlik.
