Delhi Police arrested Mohit alias KD (31), an alleged shooter of the Gogi-Deepak Boxer gang, after an exchange of fire in Wazirabad early Thursday. Times of India reports that the accused fired two rounds at a police team, which returned fire. A bullet struck an officer's bulletproof jacket, who escaped unhurt. Police said Mohit had come to Delhi to eliminate an associate of the Tillu Tajpuriya gang. Two pistols and a stolen motorcycle were recovered from him. In a separate operation, Ahmedabad Crime Branch and Delhi Police arrested Aarif alias 'Pistol', an alleged operative of the Goldy Brar gang, from Ahmedabad's Vejalpur area. Times Now reports he was wanted in over 11 cases including attempted murder and extortion. He had worked as a contract shooter, firing a single round in the air at locations given by a Dubai-based handler. Aarif is being questioned about his links and financial network.
