J Dey
The Uttarakhand Special Task Force (STF) has apprehended Deepak Dalveer Singh Sisodia, a close associate of underworld don Chhota Rajan, near the India-Nepal border in Uttarakhand`s Champawat district. Sisodia had been sentenced to life for the murder of mid-day journalist J Dey and had been on the run after being granted parole last year in January.
Sisodia, a resident of Haldwani in Nainital, was serving a life sentence in the 2011 murder of J Dey and was released on parole from Amravati jail for 45 days in January 2022 and was supposed to return to prison in March. However, he escaped, leading to the filing of a case against him by the Mumbai police in Haldwani.
