In a swift operation, the Nagpur Crime Branch police apprehended a man suspected of carrying a deadly weapon with the intent to commit serious offences. The incident, which highlights proactive policing, occurred in the bustling neighbourhood behind Saidham in Nandaji Nagar.
Chase and Capture During Evening Patrol
The events unfolded on December 1, around 6:45 PM, when a team was on a routine patrol in the area. Their vigilance paid off when they spotted Akshay alias Alu Anil Kadu, a 30-year-old local resident, acting in a highly suspicious manner. As the officers moved to question him, Kadu attempted to flee the scene on foot, triggering an immediate pursuit.
Weapon Recovered After Apprehension
The police team gave chase through the neighbourhood and successfully cornered the suspect. He was apprehended without any physical resistance. A subsequent frisking of the accused led to a critical discovery: a knife was found concealed inside his trousers. The law enforcement officials promptly seized the weapon as evidence.
Ongoing Investigation and Implications
The prompt action by the patrol team potentially averted a serious crime. The accused, Akshay Kadu, is now in police custody. Authorities are investigating his motives and intended targets for the weapon. This incident serves as a reminder of the constant vigilance maintained by the Nagpur police to ensure public safety in residential areas.
