Dubai: A man wanted for six crimes in India has been arrested in the UAE upon request from the Interpol, Dubai Police said on Monday.
The 30-year-old auto electrician residing in the UAE, has allegedly committed six crimes including murder, attempted murder, and blackmailing. He was arrested this week after a month-long search, Brigadier Khalil Ebrahim Al Mansouri, Director of Dubai Police's Criminal Investigation Department, said.
The Interpol request was received in March following international investigation that showed he was living here. Investigation by Dubai Police revealed that the wanted man was sponsored by a private company and has been a resident in the UAE for a year.
His home in Sharjah was raided in cooperation with Sharjah Police, but he managed to escape to Ras Al Khaimah, Brig Al Mansouri said.
"He was very careful in his new hiding place in an abandoned yard and only went out to buy food, but we managed to find him after an intensive search and investigation," Brig Al Mansouri said.
Earlier this week, police conducted another raid and the man was arrested. He will be extradited to India after completing the formalities at Public Prosecution.
