- Acting on intelligence, a team led by DCP Sanjeev Kumar Yadav set a trap near Khatu Shyam Temple in Rohini and intercepted a car with weapons concealed in a speaker box, leading to two arrests and two follow‑up arrests.
- The accused were identified as Mandeep Singh and Dalvinder Kumar of Punjab, and Rohan Tomar and Ajay alias Monu of Baghpat in Uttar Pradesh, according to the Crime Branch.
