Shahid Bhagat Singh Nagar: In a monumental breakthrough, the Shahid Bhagat Singh Nagar (SBS Nagar) District Police have successfully dismantled a nefarious syndicate engaged in the clandestine interstate trade of illegal firearms. Following extensive operations, law enforcement authorities managed to apprehend a key individual and seize a cache of 10 pistols, effectively disrupting the illicit activities of the criminal network.
The initiation of legal proceedings has been swift, with a First Information Report (FIR) promptly registered under the Arms Act at the Police Station City Nawanshahr within the jurisdiction of the Shahid Bhagat Singh Nagar District. As investigations progress, meticulous efforts are being made to unravel the intricate web of connections associated with both the procurement and distribution of these illegal weapons.
Preliminary inquiries have uncovered compelling evidence implicating Arun Kumar, alias Mani, originating from Bathoo, under the jurisdiction of the Haroli Police Station in Una, Himachal Pradesh. Remarkably, Kumar, a known offender with a history of criminal activities, is currently confined within the confines of Central Jail, Ludhiana.
It has come to light that Kumar played a pivotal role in orchestrating the operations of the illicit firearms trade, leveraging his connections to oversee the distribution network spanning across the states of Punjab and Himachal Pradesh. His involvement in multiple criminal cases underscores the severity of his criminal enterprise and the significant threat it posed to public safety and security in the region.
As the investigation progresses, authorities are leaving no stone unturned to uncover the full extent of the syndicate’s operations and bring all responsible parties to justice. The collaborative efforts of law enforcement agencies serve as a testament to their commitment to combating organized crime and upholding the rule of law within the community.
