Delhi Police Crime Branch Apprehends Two Fugitives in Distinct Murder Investigations
In a significant breakthrough, the crime branch of Delhi Police has successfully arrested two individuals who were absconding in connection with separate murder cases. The operations highlight the coordinated efforts between law enforcement agencies across state lines.
First Case: Arrest in Bihar Robbery-Murder
Babul Kumar was apprehended from the Kirari Suleman Nagar area of Delhi. He is accused of allegedly shooting and killing a delivery agent during a robbery attempt in Mahindwara, Bihar, on August 29, 2025. The arrest came after Delhi Police acted on a crucial tip-off provided by Bihar Police.
Officers traced Kumar to Ratan Vihar, where he had been working as a welder for the past six months, attempting to evade capture. This case underscores the interstate nature of criminal activities and the importance of police collaboration.
Second Case: Arrest in Delhi Property Dispute Murder
In another development, Devraj Dabas (24) was arrested for allegedly shooting dead Bhupender (24) over a property dispute. The incident occurred near Raj Vatika in Pooth Khurd on March 8. The arrest is part of an ongoing investigation into the violent altercation.
Two associates of Dabas have also been apprehended in connection with this case, while one individual remains absconding. Authorities are continuing their efforts to locate the remaining suspect.
Law Enforcement Coordination and Public Safety
The arrests demonstrate the effectiveness of intelligence-sharing between Delhi Police and Bihar Police. Such operations are critical in ensuring that fugitives are brought to justice, regardless of their attempts to hide across state borders.
These cases serve as a reminder of the persistent challenges faced by law enforcement in tackling violent crimes, including robbery and property disputes that escalate to murder. The public is urged to report any suspicious activities to assist police in maintaining safety and order.
