Jayendra Vishnu Thakur (Marathi: जयेन्द्र विष्णु ठाकुर or भाई ठाकुर) most commonly known as Bhai Thakur is a former underworld gangster who has been in jail multiple times under several charges including smuggling, murder and amongst various other cases. He hails from palghar. [1][2][3]
He wields enormous influence within the Vasai-Virar belt owing to his former criminal background, his brother's political party and the Viva Group, owned by his family which controls multiple construction projects in the region. He has allegedly lost an eye in attack by a rival gang during his gangster days. In 1990, he is alleged to have helped in successfully fielding his brother, Hitendra Thakur in Vidhan Sabha elections. It is also said that Petroleum Minister Ram Naik took his help in the last two Lok Sabha polls through his brother Hitendra.[5]
Crimes and conviction
He was accused in the Suresh Dube and Nizam Ansari murder case in 1989.[6][7][8]
