Delhi Police Arrest Two Bishnoi Network Operatives After New Ashok Nagar Shootout

Leads from the encounter guided a follow-up arrest in Mohali, underscoring the probe into alleged overseas handlers.

Overview

  • Special Cell officers, acting on intelligence, laid a trap in New Ashok Nagar where suspects Kartik Jakhar and Kavish opened fire before one was shot in the leg and both were detained.
  • Police say the pair work for US-based gangster Harry Boxer and are linked to the Lawrence Bishnoi network, with investigators examining reported overseas direction of crimes.
  • Following initial interrogation, a second team picked up two more alleged shooters from a Mohali hotel who had been planning to kill a Chandigarh-based businessman, and recovered weapons and a target photo.
  • Officials describe all four as shooters for the Boxer–Rohit Godara syndicate tied to the Bishnoi gang, with recent extortion activity under scrutiny, including demands linked to New Ashok Vihar and GTB Enclave cases.
  • In a parallel track, Jharkhand ATS extradited Mayank Singh from Baku for questioning as a suspected intermediary between Aman Sahu’s outfit and the Bishnoi network, a move police hope will map cross-border links.
