Mumbai: The city crime branch arrested a man with an AK-47 from Dongri in South Mumbai on Saturday. This comes as BJP leader Narendra Modi is to hold a rally at the Bandra-Kurla Complex on Monday.
    Sources identified the man as Mohammed Illiyas, though senior police officials refused to comment as their operation was continuing. Officials said there were intelligence inputs on violence by anti-social elements before the polls in the city on April 24.
    The crime branch had last week arrested Dinesh Mansari and recovered five countrymade pistols and guns with 30 live cartridges from P D’Mello Road, opposite Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus. It had transpired during the probe that he had smuggled the weapons from Burhanpur in Madhya Pradesh. Local gangster Uday Pathak’s aides were caught with four weapons last month.
