Delhi-Gurugram police neutralise notorious Nepalese criminal Bhim Jora

In a major breakthrough, the Special Staff of Delhi Police’s South-East District, in collaboration with the Gurugram Crime Branch, has neutralised the dreaded and wanted criminal Bhim Mahabahadur Jora.

The officials confirmed that the accused was neutralised in an armed encounter at Aastha Kunj Park, East of Kailash, during the intervening night of October 6 and 7. According to news agency ANI, acting on a secret tip-off about Jora’s movement, a joint team was constituted under the supervision of Inspector Rajender Singh Dagar, In-charge of Special Staff, South-East District, and Inspector Narender Sharma, In-charge of the Crime Branch, Gurugram.

The operation was launched around midnight to intercept the accused, said DCP South-East Hemant Tiwari. “When the police team confronted him near Aastha Kunj Park, Jora opened indiscriminate fire, discharging six rounds in an attempt to flee. The police team retaliated, firing five rounds, during which the accused sustained bullet injuries. He was immediately shifted to AIIMS Trauma Centre, where doctors declared him brought dead,” Tiwari added, as cited by ANI.

The accused has been identified as Bhim Mahabahadur Jora, 39, son of Mahabahadur Jora, and a resident of Lalpur, Kailali District, Nepal. Officials revealed that Jora was wanted in connection with the armed dacoity and brutal murder of Dr. Paul in Jangpura, New Delhi, in May 2024. A cash reward of Rs 50,000 had been announced for his arrest.

Police further stated that Jora was a notorious interstate criminal involved in at least six cases of murder, dacoity, and burglary across Delhi, Gurugram, Gujarat, and Bengaluru. He was also wanted in a recent burglary at a BJP leader’s residence in Gurugram and had been absconding for several months.

From Jora’s possession, the police recovered one sophisticated automatic pistol, one live round, several empty cartridges, and a bag containing house-breaking tools, reported ANI.

Despite the neutralisation of the Nepalese national, police officials confirmed that further investigation is underway to trace his associates and the network linked to his interstate criminal activities.

Delhi: Director Of Well-Known Institution Booked For Alleged Molestation; Over 15 Female Students Recorded Statements

New Delhi: The director of a branch of a well-known institution based in Delhi’s Vasant Kunj has been booked on charges of alleged molestation after more than 15 girl students came forward with complaints, police said on Tuesday.

“The Manager of an institution has been accused of allegedly molesting about 15 girls of the institution in the Vasant Kunj area. A case has been registered at Vasant Kunj North Police Station, based on the statements of the girls. The accused owns a luxury car with a fake number plate bearing the United Nations’ (UN) number. The vehicle has been impounded, and upon further investigation, it was found that no such number has been issued,” officials informed on Wednesday. “The police are tracing the accused’s location.”

Statements of around 15 students have been recorded under Section 183 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) before a magistrate.

DCP (South West) Amit Goel stated, “The accused has been traced near Agra and he will be arrested soon.”

During the investigation, police also recovered a luxury red Volvo car belonging to the accused. The vehicle was found with a fake United Nations number plate displaying “39 UN 1.” Police confirmed that the number was not issued by the UN and was fabricated by the accused himself.

Officials added that the accused had earlier applied for anticipatory bail but later withdrew the plea.

Sources stated that the institution’s management has removed the accused from their position and is cooperating fully with the police investigation.

In another operation, Delhi Police solved a blind hit-and-run case within eight days by apprehending the accused and recovering the offending vehicle in the South West district, officials informed.

According to police, on September 15 around 1 pm, a PCR call was received at Vasant Vihar police station reporting that a car belonging to Mayank Jain had been hit by another vehicle between 2 am and 3 am at the Munirka flyover.

When Jain stepped out of his vehicle, the driver allegedly hit him deliberately and fled the spot. Jain sustained injuries and was admitted to RR Hospital, Dhaula Kuan, for treatment.

Based on the complaint, a case (FIR No. 221/25) was registered at Vasant Vihar police station.

Police scanned more than 200 CCTV cameras installed along the Ring Road and its adjoining areas during the investigation. They identified a suspected car with broken front glass. Upon verification, it was found that the registered owner of the vehicle had passed away two years ago, and the car was being used by his family members.

Analysis of call records and route mapping through CCTV footage established that Gaurav Bhardwaj, a resident of Greater Kailash Enclave-I, had taken the car to Dwarka on the night of the incident. Police later found that the accused had replaced the damaged front glass at a mechanic shop in GK-I the next day. The broken glass was recovered on September 20.

On September 22, Bhardwaj was apprehended and confessed to the crime during interrogation. The car was also recovered on his instance, police added.
