New Delhi, Jan 14 (PTI) Three alleged members of a gang led by Himanshu Bhau were arrested by Delhi Police's Special Cell during a late-night operation in northwest Delhi' Rohini, officials said on Wednesday.

\n\n

Police claimed that the action averted a serious criminal incident.

The arrests were made on January 3 after receiving inputs about the trio's movements across the city with illegal firearms at the direction of Himanshu Bhau, police said.

\n\n

The suspects were identified as Punit (23) and Aniket (21), both from Haryana's Jhajjar district, and Mohit (24) from Sultanpur Dabas, Delhi.

\"The trio was allegedly planning to carry out a serious crime and was also wanted in connection with a case registered at Bawana,\" the FIR read.

\n\n

Acting on the information, senior officers ordered immediate legal action and constituted a raiding team.

The team laid a trap on the road between Sectors 31 and 36 in Rohini on the night of January 3. At 10.15 pm, the suspects arrived on a black motorcycle at the spot, police said.

\"When the police team signalled them to stop for checking, the suspects allegedly attempted to flee but were overpowered after a brief struggle,\" the FIR read.

The subsequent search led to the recovery of one pistol along with three live cartridges from the possession of each of the three accused.

\n\n

The weapons and ammunition were seized following legal procedure. The entire recovery process was videographed, according to police.

The motorcycle used by the accused was also seized after they failed to produce any satisfactory ownership or registration documents.

Police said that an FIR was registered, and further investigation was launched.

\"During preliminary questioning, the accused revealed their alleged association with the Himanshu Bhau gang,\" a senior officer said.

Police said the arrests were part of an ongoing crackdown on organised crime syndicates operating in the national capital and its adjoining areas.

\n\n

\"Efforts are on to trace and apprehend other associates of the gang and to verify the source of the illegal weapons,\" the officer said. PTI SSJ BM SMV PRK
