With dhols, 23 criminals shown the door in Ghaziabad
Ghaziabad: In a peculiar blend of law enforcement and street performance, cops in the city orchestrated a rather unconventional exodus on Wednesday. Twenty-three criminals were shown the door – quite literally – as traditional dhols and drumbeats accompanied their expulsion orders. Citing the Uttar Pradesh Gangster Control Act of 1970, the cops banned the 23 criminals — with a long list of cases against them — for a period of six months. Adding a theatrical touch to law enforcement, the cops delivered the expulsion orders right at their doorsteps, complete with a warning about consequences if they are seen within the district's borders during this period. Their crimes range from robbery and armed rioting to attempted murder, kidnapping, extortion, and various other offences through this year. "When an individual who has been asked to leave Ghaziabad under the Goondas Act expulsion order is apprehended before their term concludes, they could face fresh charges and extended expulsion periods ranging up to three years," said additional CP Alok Priyadarshi. The expelled criminals are from various areas of the city, including Loni, Crossings Republik, Tronica City, and Kaushambi. A noteworthy name among them is Waseem Kabadi from Modinagar, who has 38 criminal cases across Ghaziabad, Noida, and Meerut, with 34 of them in Noida's anti-power theft police station alone.

Though he later secured bail, the expulsion order will ensure he's off Ghaziabad's limits for the next few months. The UP Control of Goondas Act, which has attracted controversy for its potential impact on personal rights, empowers district magistrates to banish individuals deemed dangerous to society for up to two years, even without formal charges. Through 2024, a total of 523 criminals were expelled from the district after police imposed the Goondas Act against them.
