Mumbai builder murder: Arrested ex-cop had tried to kill Charles Sobhraj

Former encounter specialist Emmanuel Samuel Amolik, arrested for masterminding the murder of Vashi builder Sunil Kumar Loharia (50), has several prior claims to notoriety, one of them being an attempt to bump off notorious criminal Charles Sobhraj in a fake encounter back in 1986, soon after his arrest from O Coqueiro Bar in Panaji, Goa. Amolik's superior, retired cop Madhukar Zende, stopped him in time and reprimanded him for harbouring such intentions.
