Gaya’s officiating SSP Anil Kumar said the gangster in the video footage has been identified as Jitendra Chaudhary. Two people involved in the illicit sale of liquor, including a woman, have been arrested.
The arrested woman was identified as Lalmati Devi, Jitendra's mother-in-law. The weapons used by the gangster are yet to be recovered.
