Breaking a stubborn evasion streak, Delhi’s Crime Branch has detained two teenage brothers in a high-stakes murder bid investigation. After almost 30 days underground, the 15- and 17-year-olds were seized in Jahangirpuri—the very epicenter of their alleged crime.
It all ignited on a routine evening in G-Block. Mukesh, fresh off work, hears his boy was assaulted by local teens. Grabbing his brother, he heads to their shack for words. The exchange detonates: knives flash, and Mukesh’s kin crumples from shoulder and belly stabs. Mukesh’s intervening hand meets steel too.
An attempt-to-murder docket hit Jahangirpuri books, launching a pursuit. Crime Branch’s crack team, spearheaded by Inspector Sandeep Swamy with ACP Girish Kaushik at the helm, deployed SI Anil Saroha, SI Ravi Rana, and others. Blending informant networks with surveillance wizardry, they zeroed in.
The takedown was textbook—arrests, confessions, custody. Profiles emerged: native sons, school dropouts (6th and 8th grades), from a five-brother household led by a toiling father. The trigger? A raw hunger for street supremacy, investigations suggest.
Ongoing inquiries promise fuller revelations. This coup bolsters faith in law enforcement’s dual-fisted approach to minor-led mayhem, a growing thorn in Delhi’s underbelly. Communities breathe easier knowing predators are off the prowl.
