The Thiruvananthapuram City police have initiated steps to obtain custody of a history-sheeter who was nabbed by the Kanyakumari police, around two months after he allegedly stole a confiscated motorcycle from the premises of the Vizhinjam police station.
The accused, Merlin Raj of Thuckalay, was arrested by the Marthandam police a few days for various cases of thefts and burglaries reported in the region.
