It is learned that Suraj Pramanik used to stay at Sonari about a decade ago but he had to leave the area after developing enmity with some local goons.
Sources revealed that Suraj Pramanik had started staying at Parsudih area in the eastern fringe of the steel city, but he had started visiting Sonari since the past few days again.
