New Delhi [India], June 22 (ANI): The Delhi Police's Special Cell has arrested notorious gangster Rakesh Pampu, wanted in multiple criminal cases across Haryana and the NCR. The gangster, who was carrying a reward of Rs 20,000 on his head, was apprehended in the early hours Sunday from Rohini, Delhi Police said.
Addressing the media, DCP Special Cell Amit Kaushik said, 'Gangster Rakesh Pampu, who is mainly active in the Panipat and Haryana region, has 16 cases registered against him, including attempt to murder, robbery, and loot.'
One of the most recent and high-profile crimes involving Pampu took place in the last week of February at Veer Dhaba in Murthal, where a man named Deepak was shot dead. The killing is believed to be the result of a long-standing enmity between the two.
