Vinish, a convicted murderer from Kerala, was apprehended in Mumbai by the Railway Protection Force (RPF) after a dramatic escape from a hospital the previous year, officials revealed on Monday.

His arrest took place near Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) station after receiving a tip-off. Using the guise of a ragpicker, Vinish navigated various parts of Mumbai over the year to avoid detection.

Originally convicted for a murder in 2021 in Malappuram district, Vinish was hospitalized for mental health issues before his escape. Kerala police have since taken him into custody after completing all required legal processes.
