Who Is Anil
Chauhan?
Anil Chauhan, an Assamese native from Tezpur who lives in Khanpur
Extension, had completed his education to Class 12. Since he first began
stealing cars in 1998, he has taken over 5000 cars from various locations
across India.
Anil has already been taken into custody by the police on several
occasions and imprisoned. He was sentenced to five years in a criminal case at
Nizamuddin police station. 180 criminal cases have already involved him.
Anil Chauhan worked for the Assam government as a Class-I contractor.
Later, all of his belongings were taken during a raid by the Enforcement
Directorate. Following the bank's sale of all of his belongings, he once more
began stealing.
The accused was well known in the
northeastern state for smuggling rhinoceros horn.
In 2015, Assam police reportedly also
detained Anil Chauhan along with a sitting MLA. The accused- possibly "India's biggest car thief"- had a large family with three wives and seven kids.

Arrested
Shweta Chauhan, the Deputy Commissioner
of police for the central region, stated that the central district's special
team has been charged with monitoring illegal arms suppliers' recent uptick in
activity in both the central district and Delhi.

arrival of Anil Chauhan, India's most wanted auto lifter and supplier of
illicit weapons, at the DBG Road police station in the heart of Delhi, and the
suspect was detained on August 23, according to the accuser.
