Delhi Police has arrested Azam, a proclaimed offender and alleged member of the Rohit Choudhary gang, in Tapukara, Rajasthan, after tracking him across Alwar, Tijara and Bhiwadi, Hindustan Times reports. Police said he was wanted in five cases, including robbery, assault on police personnel, obstruction of public servants and theft, and had more than a dozen cases registered in Delhi.
The Chandan Hola resident allegedly helped supply illegal arms to gang members and others. Police said he escaped custody in September 2025 after attacking a team executing a non-bailable warrant. Officers said surveillance of call and internet protocol records led them to a hospital, where he allegedly fled across rooftops before being caught. Further investigation is under way.
Crime reports often turn an arrest into proof that an entire gang has been dismantled, while critics may dismiss police accounts as routine publicity. Neither conclusion follows here. The arrest is a police claim, and the allegations, including arms supply and the rooftop escape, must be tested in court. The practical measure is whether investigators secure evidence in the five cases and obtain a conviction, rather than the number of past cases cited in the briefing. Will the prosecution produce records that stand up beyond the arrest narrative?
