Anil Dujana wasn’t an ordinary gangster. He was on the radar of UP police for a long time and had his network spread across entire western Uttar Pradesh, especially areas like Gautam Buddh Nagar, Noida, Greater Noida, Ghaziabad, Delhi-NCR and Haryana. He was also termed the “Chota Shakeel” of western Uttar Pradesh.
Soon after his release from Tihar jail last month, Dujana was booked by the Noida police. Two FIRs were registered against him for threatening people, including a businessman, for testifying against him in court. Police had been on the lookout for him ever since he was out and threatening people.
