Delhi Police Crime Branch has arrested four men accused of being part of an international arms smuggling network linked to Pakistan’s ISI. The accused have been identified as Ajay, Mandeep, Dalvinder and Rohan. Police said the gang was supplying high-end pistols made in Turkey and China, which were flown into Punjab from Pakistan using drones and then sold to criminals in different states.
Officials said the Crime Branch recovered 10 sophisticated foreign-made pistols and 92 live cartridges. The accused allegedly supplied these weapons to gangs active in Delhi, Haryana, Punjab and other regions. Two of the arrested men are from Punjab.
Police said the weapons were meant for several notorious gangs, including those led by Lawrence Bishnoi, Bambiha, Gogi and Himanshu Bhau. “These weapons were being pushed into India using drones from across the border. The traffickers were planning to deliver the consignment in Delhi,” an officer said.
Acting on specific intelligence, the Crime Branch set up a trap in Rohini. “We had information that traffickers were arriving to hand over a large cache of weapons. Our team intercepted them and recovered modern firearms manufactured in Turkey and China,” the officer added.
