After tracking him for several months, the CBI arrested Andure in the evening on Saturday.


He was nabbed from Pune, a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) spokesperson had told reporters.


Andure is a resident of Maharashtra's Aurangabad district. 


He is believed to be one of the shooters who fired at Dabholkar while he was on a morning walk on the Onkareshwar Bridge in Pune on August 20, 2013, the CBI spokesperson said.


The central probe agency, which is probing the murder case, had earlier filed a chargesheet naming Sarang Akolkar and Vinay Pawar as the shooters in the case.


The two shooters are on the run at the moment.
