A team was constituted to nab the criminals and based on intelligence inputs, the police conducted a raid on Chaudhary Tola in Patna City and arrested the trio.
The police also arrested Ravi Singh and Ajit Kumar, members of “King of Painal” biker gang involved in cases reported in Bihta, Kanauli Bazar and other areas. The gang used to demand money from businessmen in Bihta.
