We arrested him as a warrant was issued against him by the Bandra family court," Senior Police Inspector VM Kakade at Dindoshi Police Station said. “At night, I spotted Roshni returning from the washroom and followed her to see if Raghu was also there. Once I saw him, I spoke to almost all the passengers in my compartment about my case requesting them to help me get him arrested by the police. While I went to enlist the help of the railway police, Raghu and Roshni ran out of the station, and were getting into a waiting taxi. We got into a scuffle; he even abused me,” Purnima said. Raghubir Yadav would be produced before the court tomorrow soon.
