Nuh police have arrested a proclaimed offender who had been evading arrest for nearly 23 years in connection with two theft cases registered in Faridabad district. The accused, identified as Amin, a resident of Singalheri village in Nuh district, was wanted in two separate theft cases. The first FIR was registered at Central Faridabad police station in 2003, while the second was lodged at City Ballabgarh police station in 2004. He had been absconding from court proceedings in both cases.
Declared Proclaimed Offender in 2011
According to police, the Judicial Magistrate, Faridabad, declared Amin a proclaimed offender through orders issued on August 1, 2011, and November 3, 2011, due to his continuous absence from court proceedings. Despite these orders, Amin remained at large for over a decade.
Arrest During Special Campaign
The arrest was made by the Punhana Sadar police team during a special campaign to apprehend proclaimed offenders in the district. A spokesperson of Nuh police confirmed, "Police said the arrest was made by the Punhana Sadar police team during a special campaign to apprehend proclaimed offenders in the district. The accused is currently being questioned."
Investigation Underway
The accused is currently being questioned to gather more details about the thefts and any potential accomplices. The arrest marks a significant breakthrough for the Nuh police in their efforts to bring long-absconding criminals to justice.
