The STF officers have identified the person arrested on Monday evening as 55-years-old Tapan Saha who belonged to Habra Manasabari in West Bengal.

They have also recovered two 7mm semi-automatic pistols and two improvised "one shotter" guns from the possession of this alleged veteran arms supplier, an official statement mentioned.

It further said that a case has been registered with Dum Dum Government Railway Police Station against Saha.
