Tamil Nadu police that led to the gunning down of two members of the deadly Bawariya criminal tribes in Uttar Pradesh and arrest of others more than a decade ago. The operation against the criminals was launched in January 2005 soon after the murder of former minister and AIADMK MLA Sudarsanam (Gummidipoondi). When armed dacoits struck affluent houses along National Highways in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh, the then Chief Minister Jayalalithaa ordered intensive action against the culprits. A special team led by the Inspector-General of Police (North Zone) S. R. Jangid and the then DIG Viluppuram Range Sanjay Arora worked in closed coordination with the Uttar Pradesh police and Central intelligence agencies to nab the criminals. Finger print was the only evidence to trace the criminals. Finally the finger print samples get matched with one criminal's (Lakshman Bawaria) thumb impression in Agra jail's exit ledger. The finger print was examined and verified by Fingerprint Expert Dhananjchezhiyan (who acts as a same Fingerprint Expert in this movie) and track down Oma Bawaria, Bsura Bawaria, Vijay Bawaria and others. The dacoits were also responsible for the murder of Congress leader Thalamuthu Natarajan in Salem and DMK leader Gajendran among others. The teams worked for several weeks putting together bits and pieces of information and camped in remote locations in Rajasthan, Haryana and Punjab before killing Bsura Bawaria and Vijay Bawaria in an encounter. The prime suspects Oma Bawaria and K Lakshman alias Ashok Bawaria were arrested and brought to Tamil Nadu where a special court awarded them death penalt .
