In a major operation, the Hisar Police have successfully deported gangster Dinesh Khairampuria from Cyprus and brought him back to India. The development marks a significant breakthrough in the fight against organized crime in the region.
Background of the Case
Dinesh, a resident of Khairampur village in the Adampur area of Hisar district, had traveled to Cyprus on a student visa in 2020. However, while staying abroad, he continued to operate a criminal network in India and was involved in extortion activities. According to Hisar Superintendent of Police Siddhant Jain, Dinesh used to threaten businessmen and other targets to extract money while managing the gang's operations from overseas.
Investigation and Arrest
The Hisar Police identified and traced his activities during the investigation into a sensational firing incident at the Mahindra showroom in the New Auto Market nearly two years ago. During that incident, two gunmen entered the showroom, threw a slip at the counter, stepped outside, and opened fire. They demanded Rs 5 crore from the owner. Around 30 rounds were reportedly fired, damaging the showroom's glass facade and a vehicle parked on the premises.
Following a thorough investigation, the police tracked Dinesh to Cyprus and coordinated with international authorities to secure his deportation. He is now in police custody and will face legal proceedings for his alleged crimes.
Impact on Criminal Networks
This deportation is expected to deal a severe blow to the criminal network operating in the region. The police have emphasized that they will continue to pursue all leads to dismantle the entire extortion racket and bring all perpetrators to justice.
