A 27-year-old named Gurumoorthi was arrested in Palakkad, Kerala, over suspected links to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, an outfit known for serious crimes like murder and extortion.
Police picked him up from his job at a milk booth after getting intelligence that some gang associates might be hiding out in the area.

Originally from Tamil Nadu, Gurumoorthi worked as a photographer in Mumbai, where he allegedly tracked film stars and shared their whereabouts with Bishnoi gang members abroad.
In exchange, money reportedly landed in his wife's bank account.
He is now booked under anti-terror laws, with police digging deeper into his finances as part of a wider investigation involving Kerala's Anti-Terrorist Squad and central agencies.
