Delhi HC grants interim bail to Jitender Gogi's co-accused on grounds of wife's surgery
New Delhi [India], June 27 (ANI): The Delhi High Court has granted 15 days interim bail to Prince alias Sandeep, who is a co-accused with Jitender Gogi and others in a murder case of Kunal Mann of rival Tillu Tajpuria's gang. Kunal Mann was shot dead on February 10, 2021, allegedly by Deepak alias Boxer, Mohit and Chhota Boxer, for the revenge of the murder of Kulbeer alias Mathur. An FIR was registered at Police Station Ali Pur. Prince was arrested on February 12, 2021. He was charged with Jitender alias Gogi, who was lodged in jail at the time. Gogi was shot dead by the Tillu gang in Rohini court in September 2021. Subsequently, Tillu Tajpuria was murdered in Tihar Jail in May 2023 by the Gogi gang. Justice Manoj Jain granted 15 days' interim bail to Prince alias Sandeep alias Mota on the grounds of the surgery of his wife. 'The application is allowed and interim bail is granted to the petitioner/applicant for 15 days to be reckoned from the date of his release on his furnishing personal bond and surety bond for Rs 50,000 each to the satisfaction of the learned Trial Court/ learned Duty MM,' Justice Manoj Jain ordered on June 25. The accused had moved an application seeking an interim bail of 45 days. Advocate CM Sangwan appeared for the accused and submitted that his wife has to undergo spinal surgery and there is no one else in the family to take care of her. On the other hand, the Additional Public Prosecutor (APP) opposed the bail plea by submitting that the petitioner is a co-accused of Deepak alias Boxer in a murder case. While granting interim bail, the High Court observed, 'As per status report, there is no other male member in the family and besides the petitioner and his wife, he has two minor children and one aged grandmother.' 'Undoubtedly, the allegations against the accused are serious in nature, but keeping in mind the fact that there is no other male member in the family and the wife of the petitioner has to undergo spinal surgery, the case for interim bail is made out,' the bench said in the order.

Undertrial killed by inmates: What Delhi High Court has said in the past on security in courts
In 2021, when gangster Jitender Gogi was gunned down in the Rohini court complex allegedly by rivals, the Delhi High Court had initiated a public interest litigation (PIL) on suo motu cognisance. While the PIL continues to be pending before the HC, police has given repeated assurances of heightened security measures each time a shooting incident was reported from a court. Two assailants, dressed up as lawyers, had shot at Jitender alias Gogi, who was also a high-risk prisoner, in September 2021. Gogi was being produced in court with the police. Responding to the firing, the police fired back at the assailants. The incident left Gogi and the two assailants dead. Here is an overview of the HC's remarks in recent years on security in courts. September 2021 A division bench of the High Court, on September 30, 2021, took suo motu cognisance of a firing incident at the Rohini court complex on September 24, 2021, with three lives lost, and recorded that 'there is an imminent and urgent need to take effective measures to ensure that such incidents do not recur' and to ensure 'safety and security' of the 'advocates, litigants, court staff, witnesses as well as the judges and judicial officers.' The court had immediately suggested interim measures such as the deployment of sufficient police personnel in all court complexes, installation of CCTVs at all strategic points for round-the-clock vigilance in district court complexes as well as the High Court complex. Among other measures, the court suggested the installation of high-tech metal detectors and baggage scanners, provision of UVSS (Under Vehicle Surveillance System), efficient frisking mechanism, regular meetings with stakeholders concerned about the security arrangements, and specialised training for the police personnel deployed at the HC and district court complexes. It had sought responses from a slew of stakeholders, including the Delhi government, the Ministry of Law and Justice and the Ministry of Home Affairs, Bar Council of India, the Coordination Committees of all district courts, and the Delhi High Court Bar Association, along with the bar associations of all the district courts. Subsequently, in October 2021, the Delhi Police had told the HC that security of all seven district courts in the city was taken over by the Security Unit, a specialised unit, and that necessary security arrangements were being made, and more police personnel were being deployed. It had also told the court that it is conducting 'a detailed joint security review of all seven District Courts by seven Security Unit team headed by an Officer at the level of ACP.' The police had also told the court that it is taking several measures such as deployment of a higher number of security police personnel for access control in all the Courts with extra support by the Central Paramilitary Forces ('CPMF'), apart from measures such as installing different security gadgets such as door frame and hand-held metal detectors, X-ray scanners, CCTVs etc. In November 2021, the HC had issued directions to the Delhi Police Commissioner to constitute a team of experts to undertake a security audit of complexes of the High Court as well as all the district courts, which would factor in the various factors peculiar to each of the complexes. Based on the audit, the Delhi police chief was also directed to undertake a 'periodical review' of the security arrangements. The November 24, 2021, order further records that concerning high-risk Under Trial Prisoners (UTPs), 'as far as possible, their appearance may be secured through virtual mode. Wherever or whenever there is a necessity to produce such UTPs, physically abundant care and precautions shall be taken in terms of providing adequate police escort and checking/frisking etc,' adding that 'the directions shall be scrupulously followed by all concerned'. April 2023 In April 2023, another shooting took place at the Saket District Court complex, where an advocate had shot at a woman and injured her. Taking note of the incident, on April 26, 2023, the HC recorded that 'security personnel deployed in various court premises, including the High Court, are facing some resistance in the matter of frisking and checking of cars.' The court had then suggested that joint meetings be held between bar associations and senior police officers while counsels for the Delhi government and the union government had assured the court that they would ensure 'proper security arrangements are in place to avoid any such incident in the future.' July 2023 On July 5, 2023, another firing incident between two groups of lawyers took place at the Tis Hazari court complex. Taking note of the incident, Delhi Police's Sandeep Byala, DCP, Security Courts, had told HC that frisking of lawyers and litigants and those who are entering the court building is 'being rigorously done in all the court complexes' and at the time, Byala had told HC that the Delhi Police 'is beefing up the security arrangements in all the Court complexes, including the High court of Delhi.'

How Organised Crime Is Carving Up Capital
New Delhi: Delhi's underworld is home to a multitude of notorious gangs — 95, to be specific — as the Centre informed Supreme Court on Thursday. TOI reported about it. The statistics are chilling for a metropolis like Delhi whose gang landscape has evolved over the years, transforming from yesteryear groups like the Kishan Pehalwan and Anoop-Balraj gangs of Najfagarh to newer entities such as the Bishnoi and Sangwan gangs, forming a complex network of organised crime being controlled remotely from foreign countries. The capital now has a complex underbelly characterised by the presence of various notorious gangs which are engaged in a range of illicit activities that put them at odds with law enforcement and with each other. Resultantly, the city often witnesses turf wars, extortion rackets and murders. A pertinent question that arises is: Why does Delhi have such a large number of gangs? Investigators who have watched the Delhi's underworld over the years attribute it to a number of factors ranging from Delhi's topography, proximity to states like Haryana and UP and a large migrant population in Jhuggi-Jhopri clusters. "The organised crime gangs in Delhi often exploit the vulnerabilities of the urban poor, engaging in extortion and other forms of exploitation that further entrench cycles of violence and fear. The fluid nature of gang dynamics, with alliances forming and breaking apart, adds another layer of complexity to the situation," said a retired senior cop. Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Experience three trade fairs with just one ticket Undo automatica 2025 Undo Laser World of Photonics Undo World of Quantum Undo Visit automatica: June 24-27, Munich Undo At first glance, it appears that many gangs initially formed to settle personal scores or gain an edge in college elections. However, the situation quickly escalated, with both sides resorting to violence and eventually engaging in full-fledged criminal activities to sustain their rivalry. "For example, the Gogi and Tillu Tajpuria gangs which engaged in a deadly gang war in Delhi for years and later ran extortion rackets, originated from a college election at Swami Shraddhanand College. Gogi, a student of the college, took issue with Tillu and his associates interfering with the college elections and allegedly beating Gogi's friend. This incident sparked a decades-long feud, leading to numerous violent encounters and even the deaths of both gang leaders," a senior police officer explained. Lawrence Bishnoi's foray into crime was also triggered by the rivalry between student organisations in Punjab. For many Delhi gangsters, their journey began with petty crimes, was nurtured during stints in jail, and ultimately found success driven by the aspiration to live a luxurious lifestyle. For instance, gangster Kala Jathedi was first arrested for snatching a mobile phone in 2004. A trip to jail prompted him to form his own gang. One intriguing aspect of Delhi's gang proliferation is how they gain notoriety. According to sources, while most gangsters in Delhi want to name their gangs after their own names, the cops often inadvertently fuel their reputation by labelling small groups of 3-4 collaborators as a gang, effectively legitimizing their existence in police files. Each of the gangs have their own distinct identity and sphere of influence. While there are the big names who operate across Delhi, targeting businessmen, bookies, property dealers and builders for extortion, the smaller groups engage in activities like robbery, snatching and land grabbing. A significant number of gangs in Delhi, like the Badhwar gang, are engaged in smuggling and selling illicit liquor in the city and neighbouring states. There are also these "Thak Thak gangs" who originally got their name from police for their modus operandi of knocking on car windows before striking. The big gangs have 50 to 150 members and have an average six to seven cases against each member. The smaller ones have 5-30 members each. The gangs have access to the best of weapons in Delhi. From copies of foreign-made pistols like Zigana, Taurus, Beretta and Star to the usual 7.65mm pistols manufactured in hubs like Khargone in Madhya Pradesh, Meerut in UP and Munger in Bihar. The existence of such a large number of gangs is a significant challenge for the authorities, who are tasked with maintaining law and order in a city that is both a political hub and a densely populated urban centre. However, many retired and serving cops said that while tackling the veterans was their job, a comprehensive approach was required to curb the new entrants. "This involves not only direct action against gang members but also addressing the underlying social and economic issues that fuel gang activity. Strategies might include community outreach programmes, job creation initiatives, and enhanced security measures in vulnerable areas. While law enforcement plays a critical role in controlling gang activity, addressing the root causes socially is equally important," said a senior officer. Despite these challenges, there have been notable efforts by Delhi Police and other agencies to crack down on gang activity, cops say. Operations targeting specific gangs and their leaders have yielded results, disrupting their operations and, in some cases, leading to significant arrests, they added. In any case, as Delhi confronts this grim reality, one thing is certain – the city's battle against organised crime is far from over.
