New Delhi, Oct 12 (IANS) Two members of the Lawrence Bishnoi- Sampat Nehra- Tinu Bhiwani gang have been arrested by the Special Cell of the Delhi Police following a brief encounter.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) of Special Cell, Jasmeet Singh said that the arrested gangsters, identified as Deepak Arora alias Deepa alias Popat and Gulshan Kumar alias Gulia, were arrested from the Lado Sarai area in the national capital.
The DCP said that a team of Inspector Shiv Kumar and Jitender Mawi under the supervision of ACP Attar Singh was working on an input to arrest them. Following the input the team was able to nab both the criminals.
"We had tip off about their movement in South Delhi. Technical surveillance proved that the accused were active. During the raid Deepak opened one fire at the police team. Police launched a counter attack and nabbed them," the official said.
During probe, accused Deepak Arora disclosed that he along with Sampat Nehra and other associates had waylaid a cashier of a petrol pump and robbed him off Rs 29 lakh in 2018 when he was going to deposit the cash in the SBI bank in Pooth Kalan in the area of police station Sultanpuri, Delhi. Arora fled and could not be arrested in the case.
He was found soaked in blood on the driving seat of the Mahindra Thar SUV. There were two more occupants in the car -- Sidhu's friends, Gurwinder Singh and Gurpreet Singh.
As per the information, Shubhdeep Singh, popularly known as Sidhu Moosewala, who left his house around 4.30 p.m. on Sunday along with two persons -- Gurwinder Singh (neighbour) and Gurpreet Singh (cousin), was shot dead by some unidentified persons.
The gallantry awards were given to the personnel of the armed forces, central armed police forces and state/Union Territory police forces for displaying conspicuous gallantry, indomitable courage, and extreme devotion to duty.
People in Kulgam took out a protest march holding placards and candles in their hands, condemning the brutal killing of civilians by terrorists in Kashmir, and demanded an end to violence.
Youth Congress national president Srinivas BV said that within a span of a few months, the AAP government has shown Punjab everything which was unimaginable.
Earlier in the day Bishnoi had alleged that the Punjab police can do mishappening with him under political pressure. His plea has been accepted by the Delhi High Court which will hear arguments in the matter. Moosewala's autopsy revealed that he had 24 bullet injuries whereas 30 rounds were fired.
