KUALA LUMPUR: Three wanted criminals, who were arrested in Mumbai, India, last Sunday, are believed to have arrived at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA). The trio, believed to be key members of the "Captain Praba" gang, were flown back to Malaysia on a commercial flight from Mumbai at around 1am local time under tight security escort by several Malaysian police officers. They were escorted from Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport following their detention by Indian authorities. The suspects, believed to be in their 30s, were detained by Indian authorities at the Mumbai airport after turning violent upon arrival there last Sunday. The gang is believed to have been active since 2023, with a total membership of 33 individuals.
