The SIT and STF units carried out operations at several locations on Sunday night, including Haveli Kharagpur in Munger district, Jamui, Lakhisarai, and Taal in Mokama, all in an effort to apprehend Monu Singh.
Despite their efforts, law enforcement has yet to succeed in capturing either Monu Singh or his associates.
