Gang leader Dilshad Khan has 5 'wives'.

During interrogation, it was revealed that Dilshad Khan has five wives and he started duping people to meet the heavy expenses of his 'wives'.

Khan further revealed that one of his 'wives' runs a private clinic in Jabalpur while the other accused Alok Kumar's wife is a superintendent at a government girl's hostel.
