Alleged arms dealer Manish Nagori, who was arrested earlier in the Narendra Dabholkar murder case, was held again on Saturday night for violating externment rules hours after he was released on bail, police said Sunday.
After being released Friday from Mumbai's Arthur Road Jail on bail in an Arms Act case, Nagori had gone to Kolhapur despite being earlier externed from there, an official said.
"He was arrested for violating externment norms and entering the jurisdiction of Kolhapur police," Senior Inspector Sanjay More of Shahupuri police station in Kolhapur said.
Nagori was held by Pune police in August, 2013 in connection with the murder of anti-superstition activist Narendra Dabholkar.
Nagori's name was not mentioned in the Central Bureau of Investigation's charge sheet and he has approached court seeking discharge from the case.
Police said Nagori has around 20 cases of extortion, arms dealing and murder.
