Delhi Police continues its strict campaign against criminals who challenge law and order and disturb communal harmony in the capital Delhi. In this series, the special team of Delhi Police has achieved a big success and arrested the wanted gang leader who was absconding for a long time in the procession violence case after an encounter. During this late night encounter, the bullet fired by the police in self-defense hit the criminal’s leg, after which he was controlled in an injured condition. The arrested accused was not only the main mastermind in the conspiracy of violence and stone pelting during the procession, but also has more than a dozen serious criminal cases registered against him in various police stations of Delhi-NCR like attempt to murder, possession of illegal weapons, extortion and inciting riots.
According to senior Delhi Police officials, the police team had received concrete information from a reliable informer that the wanted leader of the procession violence was going to pass through a deserted area late at night and was planning to commit some major crime. As soon as the information was received, the special team cordoned off the area and started an intensive checking operation. As soon as the suspected miscreant was seen coming on a motorcycle, the police team signaled him to stop and warned him to surrender. Seeing himself surrounded by the police, the accused tried to run away leaving the bike and opened fire directly at the police team. A bullet fired by the miscreant hit the bulletproof jacket of the policeman, due to which the soldier narrowly escaped. After this, the police team, showing restraint and alertness, retaliated in self-defense, in which one bullet hit the miscreant’s right leg and he fell on the ground.
Immediately after the encounter ended, the police team took the injured criminal into custody and admitted him to the nearby government hospital for first aid, where according to the doctors, his condition is out of danger. The crime team and experts from the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) were called to thoroughly investigate the incident site. Police have recovered a sophisticated semi-automatic pistol, several live cartridges, empty cartridges and a stolen motorcycle without number plate being used in the crime from the spot. Police officials say that forensic examination of the recovered weapons is being conducted to find out in which previous criminal incidents they were used.
It is noteworthy that Delhi Police had already arrested many accused in the case of stone pelting, arson and disturbance during the procession in the capital, but this main gang leader who instigated this entire incident and instigated the crowd was dodging the police by continuously changing his hideout since the incident. A reward was also announced by the police department on his arrest. Police believe that after being discharged from the hospital, when the accused will be taken on remand and interrogated thoroughly, many shocking revelations can be made about the funding of procession violence, arms supply network and other absconding operatives of his gang.
After this encounter, Delhi Police has given a clear message that any criminal who disturbs the peace of the capital and takes law into his hands will not be spared. The Deputy Commissioner of Police has praised the promptness and courage of the team involved in the encounter. As a precautionary measure, police patrolling and drone surveillance have been increased in sensitive areas, so that common citizens feel safe and any kind of rumor or anti-social activity can be curbed immediately.
