Delhi Police and Haryana Police have arrested at least 10 people in separate operations targeting gang networks. In Gurugram, six alleged members of the Rohit Godara and Lipin Nehra syndicates were held Monday for plotting to kill two rival gang members, police said. Investigators seized a Turkish Zigana pistol, two Chinese PX30 pistols, two Indian-made pistols, a rifle, 33 live rounds, nine magazines and a Mahindra Scorpio.
The Delhi Police crime branch arrested two arms suppliers, including Waseem alias Hazi Waseem, who allegedly supplied the pistol used in the 2020 northeast Delhi riots. Police recovered a semi-automatic pistol and live cartridges, and said Waseem was directed by Canada-based gangster Davinderpal Singh. The Special Cell separately arrested two Gogi gang sympathisers planning extortion crimes near Munak Canal, seizing two pistols and four live cartridges.
Those arrested face charges under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita for organised crime and the Arms Act. Raids are continuing to trace other gang members and weapon suppliers.
Indian Opinion Analysis
All three reports present police accounts without independent scrutiny, but each foregrounds a different syndicate and location, creating the impression of three separate crackdowns rather than one coordinated action. Hindustan Times and one Times of India story frame the arrests as preemptive, Hindustan Times stressing the seized weapons and overseas handlers, the other Times story leading with the Gogi gang’s extortion planning. The third Times story is more dramatic, centring on the supplier of a riot-linked pistol and a shootout with police. Missing from all three is any detail on the intended targets, the specific feuds, or whether these syndicates overlap. The common thread is the Delhi-NCR extortion ecosystem, the next measure to watch is judicial proceedings in Bhondsi, Rohini and Narela police stations.
