Former bandits are being recruited as tour guides in a dangerous part of India.
Tourist chiefs in the state of Rajasthan reckon the chance to hang out with criminals and learn about the region's most notorious criminals will be a big draw for tourists.

The very idea of having a morning cup of tea with a bandit on the banks of the Chamal will appeal to tourists.
