INFORMATION AND OPERATION

A team of Anti Robbery Cell of the Crime Branch received a secret input regarding the movement of notorious criminals, namely Rajesh @ Pinchu and Om Parkash @ Leelu, members of Sandeep Chitania gang, in the area of Greater Kailash. The information entailed that Rajesh and Leelu are being seen around Shiv Shakti Mandir, W-Block, Greater Kailash and they are likely to visit again. The ARC team swung into action and laid a trap around this place. One person was sighted in front of the main gate of the adjoining MCDPark, who was later identified as Rajesh Lochab @ Pinchu. On seeing the police party, in order to escape, he took out and tried to cock an improvised semi automatic pistol. But he was overpowered by HC Satpal Dagar, with the help of the raiding party. This dreaded gangster was nabbed by the police team without shedding a drop of blood in a swift operation. An improvised semi automatic pistol and five live bullets of .32” caliber were recovered from him. A case vide FIR No. 102/13 dated 06/06/2013 u/s 25 Arms Act is registered in PS Crime Branch.

PROFILE OF THE ACCUSED RAJESH @ PINCHU

Rajesh @ Pinchu is 24 years old and hails from Bupaniya village of district Jhajjar. His father runs a private business. Hegot education from MaharishiDayanandUniversity, Haryana and has completed MBA from Sikkim-ManipalUniversity from RegionalCenter, Rohtak in the year 2012.

Rajesh @ Pinchu is proficient in computers. In 2009, he opened a training institute by the name Megamind Institute Financial Market Private Limited at M-8, Old DLF, Sector-14, Gurgaon. At his institute, Corporate Finance Training was imparted to corporate officials, as claimed by him.

Rajesh has disclosed that in January 2012, he was asked by his cousin to pick one Vikas @ Dudhiya, a sharp shooter of Sandeep Chitania gang. Rajesh picked up Vikas from Dhaula Kuan. Both of them were intercepted by Gurgaon Police at TollPlaza, Delhi-Gurgaon border. He was arrested, vide FIR No. 19/12, dated 20.01.2012 u/s 25 Arms Act, PS DLF-II, Gurgaon. During his stay in Bhondsi jail, he met Sandeep Chitania and Surender Malik @ Neetu Dabodhia. After absconding from the custody of Haryana Police, Sandeep used to meet Rajesh at Gurgaon, Rohtak and other places in Haryana.

In March 2013, Sandeep Chitania hatched a conspiracy to extort huge amount of money from a big builder. On 2nd March 2013, Sandeep Chitania and his associates called the father- son duo, who own construction companies, at the above said office of Rajesh, on the pretext of discussing some property deals and helping to get CLU for 128 Acre land in Gurgaon. During discussions, Sandeep and his associates demanded 20 crore. In a bid to extort this amount, they abducted the son and took him somewhere in Haryana. Rajesh along with Pradeep, a sharp shooter of Sandeep Chitania gang, went to Greater Kailash-I at their residence to receive the ransom amount. While they were leaving, they were intercepted by Haryana Police. Pradeep was caught on the spot whereas Rajesh managed to escape. A case vide FIR No. 137/13 dated 02.03.2013 u/s 364/364A/328/120B IPC r/w 25 Arms Act was registered at PS Civil Lines, Gurgaon, Haryana.

After escaping from the spot, Rajesh met Sandeep at Sonepat. On his advice, Rajesh went to Nepal to evade arrest. Sandeep had given an ultimatum to the builder to pay ransom or be prepared to meet the consequences. Few days ago, Sandeep died in an encounter with Haryana Police. Rajesh took over the unfinished task of getting extortion amount of 20 crore. Gurgaon Police had declared a reward of Rs. one lakh on the arrest of Rajesh @ Pinchu and Rs. fifty thousand on the arrest of Om Parkash @ Leelu. Rajesh and his associate Om Parkash @ Leelu, started roaming in W-Block, Greater Kailash–I, since they were looking for an opportunity to abduct a member of the target family. By acting swiftly, the Crime Branch team was able to prevent a heinous offence and save lives of the concerned individuals.
