She was found living with a family on the banks of Narmada near Dewas in Madhya Pradesh. No cellphone or ATM cards were found in her possession. She was carrying a cash reward of Rs 5 lakh.<\/p>\n<p>A family from Jodhpur that had moved to Dewas gave her shelter.<\/p>\n<p>The ATS kept Indira under surveillance for nearly two months and confirmed her identity before making a move. Her appearance has completely changed over the past six years.<\/p>\n<p>Senior police officials said Udaipur\u2019s ATS branch got a tip-off about her whereabouts nearly two months ago.<\/p>\n<p>Senior ATS officials constituted police teams to keep a watch on her.<\/p>\n<p>Police teams were unable to identify her on the basis of her photo from six years ago.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe was staying with a family from poor background. Despite having no disguises, the changes in her appearance were surprising. The family had shifted to Dewas nearly 50 years ago,\u201d said a police officer.<\/p>\n<p>But ATS nabbed her after confirming her identity.<\/p>\n<p>Indira will be handed over to Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) that is investigating the case.<\/p>\n<p>Bhanwari Devi \u2013 a midwife and nurse \u2013 was blackmailing Indira\u2019s brother Malkhan Singh Bishnoi who was an MLA in the previous Congress government. Bhanwari had a daughter from Malkhan and she was demanding inheritance rights for the child. A DNA test proved Malkhan had fathered the child.<\/p>\n<p>Indira had instigated Bhanwari Devi to prepare a sleaze CD showing her in compromising situation with Mahipal Maderna, the then cabinet minister. Indra wanted to dethrone Mahipal, so that her brother Malkhan could get a cabinet birth. However Bhanwari started blackmailing both Malkhan and Maderana.<\/p>\n<p>Bhanwari Devi sudddenly went missing. After the local police failed to locate her, the case was handed over to the CBI. Her remains were found from a canal. CBI officials said that she was charred to death. Malkhan and Mahipal were arrested by the CBI along with several others in this connection.<\/p>\n<p>Indira had hatched a conspiracy to kill Bhanwari Devi because the latter was blackmailing Mahipal.<\/p>\n<p>Indira had been quizzed by the CBI, but she disappeared in December, 2011. A court had ordered attachment of her properties. The properties were put up for auction twice, but they didn&#8217;t find any takers. She had been declared an absconder by the court.<\/p>\n<p>She had sought an anticipatory bail on the grounds of mental incompetence, but her application was turned down.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Note: Want to share this story with someone?
