Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: A notorious criminal Ganesh Shankar Pimple (Jogeshwari, Gangapur) who was moving around the city with two pistols and live cartridges despite being banished from the district for committing serious crimes, was arrested by the Crime Branch in Pratapnagar on Friday evening.

Ganesh was previously booked in cases of theft and robbery in MIDC Waluj and Vedantanagar areas along with Ahilyanagar, and Nashik districts.

He was expelled from the district on February 20, 2024, because of his serious crimes. Crime Branch Police Inspector Sandeep Gurme received information that the criminal was moving around the city with the intention of committing a crime.

Since he was carrying pistols with cartridges, PSI Sandeep Solanke, constable Prakash Gaikwad, Amol Shinde, Manohar Gite and Amol Mugle laid a trap in Pratapnagar on Friday evening at the instructions of Gurme. He was caught red-handed.

He admitted that both the pistols were brought from Madhya Pradesh. He was handed over to Osmanpura police after seizing the weapons.
