Punjab Anti-Gangster Task Force Arrests Two Armed Suspects in Bathinda

Bathinda, March 21: In a significant move against crime in Punjab, the Anti-Gangster Task Force (AGTF) has achieved another major success. In a joint operation with Bathinda police, they arrested two suspects who were found in possession of illegal firearms.

The suspects have been identified as Jackie Kumar, also known as Jackie, and Vikas Arora. They were allegedly plotting to rob a businessman in Bathinda when police apprehended them. Authorities recovered two homemade .32 bore pistols, a magazine, and four cartridges from their possession.

Initial investigations revealed that the weapons were brought from Delhi. The police are now working to connect the dots within this network to identify any additional accomplices involved.

Vikas Arora has a criminal record, having previously been implicated in domestic violence cases.

Earlier, the AGTF Punjab, in collaboration with the Haryana Special Task Force (Karnal Unit), conducted another significant operation. They arrested two close associates of fugitive gangster Lucky Patial, identified as Rajan, also known as Piyush Pehalwan, and Preetam Shah. Both are believed to be linked to the Bambiha gang.

These suspects are accused of involvement in a high-profile murder case that occurred on March 18 in Sector 9, Chandigarh, where Charanpreet Singh, also known as Chinni, was killed. This incident has caused considerable alarm in the region.

Punjab police have reiterated their commitment to taking strict action against crime and gangster activities in the state, promising to continue such operations against offenders.
