Dr Amit Kumar, the alleged kingpin in the multi-crore rupees kidney transplant racket in India, has been arrested in Nepal, the Himalayan Times newspaper reported on Thursday.
The paper reported it as a "breaking news" on its website, but there was no detail.
Earlier, the Nepalese police said that they had intensified the hunt for people involved in the kidney racket allegedly run by Kumar, who is suspected to be hiding in the Himalayan state.
"We have been investigating the matter and we cannot reveal the details until the investigation is over," Kathmandu district police chief Upendra Kanta Aryal said.
Last week, Interpol issued notices for the arrest of Kumar and his brother, saying the two were the "subject of national arrest warrants for illegal transplanting of kidneys, cheating and criminal conspiracy''.
