Police have arrested Maoist leader Bapi Mahato, the main accused in the Jnaneshwari Express train attack in which over 148 people were killed.

A section of the track was removed, a train headed to Mumbai derailed in Jhargram in West Midnapore, and was then hit by another train on May 28.

This is the fourth arrest in the case. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is probing the train disaster which is suspected to be a work of Naxals.

Earlier, the CBI had offered one lakh for information that could help locate three people it has accused of the West Bengal train attack last month. (Bengal train attack: CBI accuses PCPA members)
