A Delhi Court on Monday convicted noted gangster Chhota Rajan and three others in connection with a fake passport case.

The arguments on the sentence will be heard tomorrow.

The court also ordered the arrest of three other convicts with immediate effect. They are currently out on bail.

Rajan was found guilty for allegedly procuring a fake passport in the name of Mohan Kumar with the help of these three government officials.

A special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court had framed charges and put on trail the three retired public service personnel, who aided the gangster.

The four accused have been charged for alleged offences under Sections 420 (cheating), 471 (using as genuine a forged document), 468 (forgery for purpose of cheating), 467(forgery of valuable security or will), 419(cheating by impersonation) and 120B (criminal conspiracy) of the IPC and section 12 (offences and penalties) of the Passport Act.

Rajan is currently lodged in the Tihar Jail here while the other three accused are out on bail.
