A special CBI court in Mumbai has acquitted gangster Chhota Rajan in the 2011 murder case of driver Arif Bael. The case was transferred to the CBI after Rajan's deportation from Bali in 2015. Previously, three individuals were convicted and sentenced to life for the murder, while four others were acquitted. The court dropped charges under the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act, citing lack of evidence. Rajan, currently serving a life sentence for another murder, appeared via videoconferencing from Tihar jail. The prosecution claimed the murder was linked to a gang rivalry involving Rajan and Dawood Ibrahim's associates.
