Renuka PuriPosing as a businessman who dealt in fruit orchards and land in hilly terrains, Sonu Dariyapur evaded arrest for four months, police said. Everywhere he went, he stayed in rented accommodations and changed his name — sometimes he was Sandeep, other times he was Rajesh. Sources told The Indian Express that in the last four months, he has stayed in at least “eight” places, from Himachal Pradesh to Uttarakhand, Rajasthan, Haryana, Punjab and Uttar Pradesh. Once done hiding in Himachal Pradesh, he fled to Rajasthan for a month with the help of an acquaintance, police said. Police also claimed that he has another wife and a 10-year-old son in Himachal Pradesh, and that he met them several times during this period.
