Meanwhile, the Siwan police administration sent another team to Delhi on Saturday. This followed reports that the Delhi police administration had expressed its inability to cooperate with the Siwan police team to arrest Shahabuddin as the team had gone with xerox copies of the warrants which were not legible. The other team which left on Saturday has all the proper documents with it, sources said.

Even as Shahabuddin has been easily accessible to the media, the police team camping in Delhi are clueless about him. Inspector Pulender Singh of the police team in Delhi told newsmen in Delhi that he did not know where Shahabuddin was and that he did not have his cell number. "But he will be arrested if we see him,"Singh said.

Bihar DGP A R Sinha also said in Patna the RJD leader will be "definitely arrested". "A proper requisition for the arrest of Shahabuddin has been sent to Delhi,"said the DGP who only a few days ago had explained the police failure to arrest the MP saying "How can I arrest Shahabuddin when he is in Delhi".

Speaking to TOI, the DGP reiterated that people keep targeting Shahabuddin all the time. "Let's not discuss individual cases. There are so many NBWs that have to be executed,"he said.

With Shahabuddin declaring that he will be returning to Delhi on Monday to attend the LS session, he has virtually challenged the state police to `catch me, if you can."
