It was a dramatic end to 30 years of life underground for one of India's most wanted fugitives, Arabinda Rajkhowa, chairman of the outlawed United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA).
Rajkhowa and the deputy commander-in-chief of the outfit Raju Baruah, along with eight more militants, including their families, surrendered before authorities at Dawki in the northeastern state of Meghalaya.
Along with Rajkhowa, his wife Kaveri and two children, Raju Baruah, his wife and a child, Rajkhowa's personal security guard Raja Bora, and the wife of ULFA foreign secretary Sasha Choudhury and their son surrendered.
