They
say that crime is usually a step ahead of the law. Rajendra Sadashiv
Nikalje aka Chhota Rajan was certainly ahead of the Central Bureau of
Investigation (CBI) when he was in their custody, stationed in the
investigation chamber in the organisation’s headquarters. Now, Chhota
Rajan is a dream catch (it is said that Ajit Doval, the 70-year-old
National Security Adviser, was the brains behind his arrest, having told
some people he was in touch with the Indonesian authorities a few days
before the news broke) for an investigation agency. When an
international gangster is nabbed, a complete dossier is immediately
readied for the interrogation. But the CBI was not equipped to
interrogate him (who ordered that the agency should carry out the
interrogation has not been disclosed). Sources say that Chhota Rajan
realised in no time that his interrogators were novices regarding the
international underworld. So, one day, during his interrogation, he
bluntly told the CBI men that they were not competent enough to
interrogate him and he would only speak to senior Intelligence Bureau
(IB) officials with domain knowledge of global crime. The CBI officials
did not want to call the Mumbai cops as they were very harsh with the
gangster when they interacted with him in the first phase. The second
problem was that he could not be sent to Mumbai. Now Chhota Rajan is
housed in Tihar Jail Barrack No 2.g
