Siwan, May 3: Police on Saturday arrested one of Bihar's most wanted criminal and contract killer Sultan Mian and rescued Kanchan Mishra, whom he allegedly abducted and married forcibly, from Siwan town.
Sultan was arrested by the Siwan district police when he was moving with Kanchan Mishra in the town, Deputy Inspector General of Police (Provision) and spokesman for Bihar police Rituraj told PTI in Patna.
The main accused in last year's killing of a Patna-based businessman Manoj Kamalia, Sultan was wanted in several cases of murder, loot and kidnapping.
Sultan hit the headlines when National Commission for Women (NCW) chairperson Purnima Advani, on the complaint of Mishra's mother Sachita Devi, had conducted an inquiry and ordered the state police on December 17 to trace Mishra within ten days and produce her before the Commission.
However, Sultan, who eluded the police for the last several years could not be held.
Sachita Devi had complained to the NCW that her married daughter was abducted by Sultan -- considered close to a controversial ruling RJD Lok Sabha member -- from Mainpura locality in the state capital in the first week of November and then he married her in a city mosque last year.
