Mangaluru, Feb 25: Notorious gangster Ravi Poojary,
who has been extradited to India from Senegal, has 34 cases registered against him within the city police commissionerate.
Now in Bengaluru police custody for interrogation in connection with several cases there, Poojary faces cases relating to murder, murder attempt, extortion and threat calls in the city, police sources said.
Sources said the city police are trying to get Pujari for interrogation though it would take a while as the court has allowed Bengaluru police to keep him in custody for questioning and evidence taking for 15 days.
Most of the cases in the city against him, 28 of them, are in connection with threat calls.
He had allegedly made threat calls in 2015 to the then state ministers B Ramanath Rai and Abhayachandra Jain, demanding immediate arrest of the accused in the murder of Bajrang Dal worker Prashanth Poojary.
All the cases against Poojary in the city were registered between 2007 and 2018.
Cases involving murder, death threats and shootouts are among the cases to be investigated, the sources said.
A total of 28 cases of death threat calls, one of murder, three of shootouts, one of abduction and a case of funding his associates lodged in prison are the crimes being probed by the city police.
The cases are now pending in courts at different stages of trial.
Cases of making threat calls to businessmen using his associates demanding protection money have been registered at Moodbidri, Kavoor, Kadri, Konaje, Barke and Urwa police stations.
Some of his associates were imprisoned in 2012 in connection with threat calls to a businessman from Kinnigoli.
The case relating to providing them money while in prison was also registered in the same year.
Pujari, wanted in many cases including extortion and murder in different parts of the country, including Karnataka and who had been on the run for over 15 years, was deported to Senegal following his arrest and later extradited
He had jumped bail in Senegal last year after being arrested there.

BJP will get more 200 votes and Yediyurappa will be next CM. This is already finalised and Yediyurappa has been told this by one Mawlwi who was asked by him to do some black magic at his home. Yediyurappa should camp in Bangalore and do the preparation for oath taking ceremony. Yediyurappa is the beloved leader of Karnata people as he did lots of good things to people while he was CM. He was sent to jail due to wrong allegation though he was innocent. He is very pious and religious person and always thinks for good things to people. He respects people from all religions and hence people for all religion respect and love him. Karnataka will be number one state in India if Yediyurappa comes to power. Only he can solve Kaveri + Mhadevi + Belgaum + Kasargod issues.
The last wish of life which cannot fulfil.
Yenchina marl marere, election muggidiji Yeddi 17 k oath dethenuvege. Oatha boka yenchina.
