Underworld Don gangster Chota Rajan has died of Covid-19. Chhota Rajan, who was treating for Covid-19 at AIIMS, succumbed to the novel disease on Friday.
Police confirmed Rajan’s death. Chhota Rajan’s original name was Rajendra Nikalje. He was 62-year-old.
Chota Rajan had worked for notorious gangster and India’s most-wanted underworld don Dawood Ibrahim. Rajan was once a right-hand man for Dawood.
However, they had split and Rajan had formed his independent gang that led to their clash.
Chota Rajan was arrested in 2015 in Indonesia and was brought to India. He was jailed in Tihar prison in Delhi since then. He was admitted to AIIMS on April 26th after testing positive for Covid-19 positive.
Rajan getting admission into AIIMS drew controversy as several common people suffered to get admission into hospitals with a surge in Covid-19 cases across the country.
