A woman paramour and an associate of dacoit Chandan Gadaria, who was recently killed in an encounter, were arrested here in the wee hours today, police said.
Chandan's paramour Chanda Gadaria and his close associate Bhoja Gadaria were nabbed from Amola forest area, where the encounter took place few days back in which Gadaria was killed.
"We have arrested Chanda and Bhoja, who had managed to escape after the encounter in which their leader Chandan Gadaria was killed," Shivpuri SP M U Qureshi said.
Both of them were carrying a reward of Rs 10,000 each on their head.
Two 315-bore rifles were recovered from their possession, he said.
During questioning, Chanda told police that dacoit queen-turned-MP late Phoolan Devi was her role model and like her, she also wanted to be a parliamentarian.
"With their arrest the entire Gadaria gang has been wiped-off," the SP added.
Chandan Gadaria was killed in an encounter by Shivpuri police in Kevin forest area in Shivpuri district last month.
