Delhi: NSG jawan killed in hit-and-run in R K Puram, man arrested

A 30-year-old man was arrested for allegedly mowing down a National Security Guard (NSG) jawan in a hit-and-run earlier this month. According to police, it was a blind case as there were no witnesses to the incident. The police were notified of the case when a PCR call was received at the R K Puram police station in the early hours of July 9, reporting that an unidentified male had been hit by a vehicle on the service road of Rao Tula Ram Marg near Sector 8. The injured man, later identified as Narender Singh, a serving personnel of the NSG, was rushed to AIIMS Trauma Centre for medical attention. He was later declared dead. With no immediate clues or witnesses, a case was registered under sections 281 (rash or negligent driving) and 125A (act endangering human life or personal safety of others) of the BNS. 'A team analysed CCTV footage from dozens of cameras along the Outer Ring Road and nearby areas and spotted the suspected vehicle — a Maruti Ertiga. The vehicle was traced and we questioned the owner. He confirmed that he had given his car to his driver, Pawan Kumar Chauhan… and provided the latter's mobile number. However, the phone was found switched off… Despite reaching the last known location, the team could not trace either the vehicle or the accused. Further CCTV tracking confirmed the vehicle's movement in Noida Sector 67, but it went untraceable afterward,' said DCP (Southwest) Amit Goel. The team continued its technical monitoring and distributed the suspect's photograph to a network of informers across Delhi and the NCR, said police. On July 24, the police received a tip-off that Chauhan was at his house in Rajokri. A subsequent raid led to his arrest and the recovery of the Maruti Ertiga, said police. During questioning, the 30-year-old accused allegedly admitted that on the day of the accident, he was returning from Haridwar with his family. Exhausted from the journey, he momentarily dozed off near RTR Marg, resulting in the accident. In a state of panic and despite his family's pleas to stop, he fled the scene. He later dropped his children at Rajokri and went into hiding in Noida in an attempt to avoid arrest, said police.

Ex-NSG Personnel Robbed At Gunpoint In Delhi, Accused Arrested: Cops

New Delhi: A 35-year-old man has been arrested from Uttar Pradesh's Noida in connection with the robbery of Rs 60 lakh at gunpoint at the residence of a retired NSG personnel in Delhi's Chandni Chowk, an official said on Tuesday. The accused, identified as Alok Kumar Mishra, is a driver of an employee of a civic body, the official said, adding that Bhimsen (86), a former National Security Guard (NSG) recruit, who now runs a jewellery business in the Kinaari Market area, was at his residence on Saturday with his son Sandeep, daughter-in-law Neelam and grandson when the robbery took place. "The incident took place when a man named Sunil knocked on the door of the house and called out the name of a family member. As soon as the door was opened, three masked assailants, armed with weapons, forced their way into the residence," a senior police officer said. The intruders started searching for certain documents, and when the grandson tried to intervene, one of the assailants brandished a firearm, tied his hands and gagged him using adhesive tape. "The suspects then ransacked the house and made away with jewellery and precious stones estimated to be worth around Rs 50 lakh. They also took away 3,550 dollars in cash," the officer added. Before fleeing, the robbers confined the family members in the kitchen and locked the door from outside. Once the assailants escaped, the family alerted their neighbours, who helped them break free, following which police were informed. Alok was caught in Noida, and the firearm used in the crime has also been recovered from his possession, the officer said. However, no stolen item has been recovered from him and further probe is ongoing to nab the other accused, the officer added. The case was registered on Saturday.
