Rajasthan Police Lured Wanted Trafficker from Nepal to Bihar

Police in Rajasthan were looking for a man named Sohanlal, whom they accused of drug trafficking.

They said he had been hiding in Nepal and was wanted in a case from 2020.

Officers pretended to be buyers interested in a large drug deal.

They first planned to meet him near a temple in Kathmandu.

When he did not arrive, officers disguised themselves near the temple and looked for him.

They eventually persuaded him to travel to Raxaul, a border town in Bihar, to collect money.

Police arrested him after he crossed into India.

Police said this was the task force’s first arrest of a wanted person who had fled abroad.
