NEW DELHI: Nearly two years after he jumped parole, Devender Sharma , notorious as ' Doctor Death ', was on Monday arrested by Delhi Police from an ashram in Rajasthan's Dausa.
Sharma (67) was involved in the abduction and murders of truck and taxi drivers in Delhi and other states in the early 2000s, and was also convicted in a kidney racket . First arrested in 2004, he was granted a two-month parole on June 9, 2023, but went into hiding instead of returning to prison.
DCP (crime) Aditya Gautam said on Tuesday that a police team launched a hunt across several locations, including Aligarh, Jaipur and Delhi. Over six months, the cops explored possible hiding spots, including Agra and Prayagraj. Finally, they traced Sharma to an ashram in Dausa, where he was living under a false identity - as a priest. The cops posed as his followers and eventually arrested him.
