New Delhi:

A mega-operation spread across twelve states has resulted in the arrest of two of north India's most wanted criminals -- Sandeep, also known as Kala Jathedi and Anuradha "Revolver Rani" Chaudhary.

Kala Jathedi is accused of leading an international syndicate that was involved in contract killings, organized bootlegging, extortion and land-grabbing, a Delhi police statement said on Saturday.

Jathedi, a wanted criminal with a bounty of Rs 6 lakh from Delhi and Haryana, was arrested from Uttar Pradesh's Saharanpur, police said.

He was on the run since February last year after escaping from Haryana Police's custody -- an incident that saw an audacious attack on a police escort party.

Anuradha Chaudhary or Madam Minz, an infamous 'Lady Don - Revolver Rani' of Rajasthan, with a long criminal record and carrying a reward of Rs 10,000 was also arrested. She is accused of several crimes including kidnapping, extortion, Arms and Excise Act violations and cheating.
