CBI Court Acquits Chhota Rajan and Four Others in 2009 Attack Case
A special CBI court acquitted gangster Chhota Rajan and four others, including businessman Surendra Agarwal, in a 2009 attempt-to-murder case involving Shiv Sena leader Ajay Bhosale. The attack occurred during Bhosale's election campaign in Pune and was linked to a property dispute among the Agrawal family. Bhosale was unharmed, but his driver was injured. The case was transferred to the CBI after Rajan's 2015 deportation. Rajan remains imprisoned for other convictions.
