The Meghalaya Police took custody of BJP vice-president Bernard N. Marak, who is accused of running a sex racket at his farmhouse in the northeastern state, on Wednesday, a day after he was arrested here.
A team from Meghalaya reached the Pilkhua police station in Hapur, and took the BJP leader back to Tura, Superintendent of Police (Hapur) Dipak Buker said.
Mr. Marak, a former militant leader, had gone missing following a police raid — which started Friday night and ran till Saturday morning — at the farmhouse at Tura in Meghalaya's West Garo Hills district.
