Hours after the encounter, Rana posted on Instagram threatening special cell officers with consequences for the encounter. "We will definitely take revenge for this encounter and get justice for our brother. In our tradition, death is the revenge for death. Whether we have to kill the policemen in it or whoever we come to know was involved... no matter who he is, whatever his level, we will kill him," Rana posted from his account.

He was sending messages to businessmen, saying they won't receive multiple warnings like in the past. If the money was not paid after the first demand, "seedha maut aayegi", he used to warn them. According to additional CP Kushwaha, they had received inputs about Vohra's movements in south Delhi after which a joint checking exercise was undertaken in the vicinity of the Delhi-Haryana border in Dera Mandi. "A team led by DCP Manishi Chandra laid a trap. In the early hours of Tuesday, Vohra was identified by an informer and stopped. The police teams tried to apprehend him, but he fired on the police party and tried to escape. The team fired in self-defence during which Vohra sustained gunshot injuries," Kushwaha said. Two sub-inspectors Pravin and Rohan were shot at by Vohra during the exchange of fire. The injured cops and the criminal were rushed to hospital where Vohra was declared dead and the policemen were admitted for treatment. Vohra's first major crime was in Dec 2024 in Yamunanagar. He and his associates had killed three liquor businessmen—Virender Rana, Arjun Rana and Pankaj Malik—outside a gym on Dec 26. The services of nine police personnel who were deployed at the police post under whose area the crime happened were terminated for not taking timely action. On June 14, Vohra and associates fatally shot a liquor contractor at Shahabad in Haryana's Kurukshetra district. Shantanu was shot dead near Meena Market on the national highway when he had briefly stopped his car to buy cigarettes from a shop. Vohra and his aide, riding a sports bike, pumped seven bullets into him and fired about eight rounds before fleeing. As panic gripped the busy highway, bystanders tried to intervene and stop the shooters. However, the assailants quickly abandoned their bike, sprinted across the road and hijacked a motorcycle at gunpoint. They then fled towards Ambala, driving recklessly on the wrong side of the highway.
