Three persons involved in robbery, cattle smuggling arrested

With the arrest of three persons, Delhi Police today claimed to have busted a gang involved in robbery, human trafficking, cattle smuggling and also the murder of a police constable at southwest Delhi's Kapashera area around seven years ago.
The three identified as Salim (32), Azim (23) and Mushir (31), were wanted for several cases of robbery in east Delhi and had been evading the police for months, said Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) Ravindra Yadav.
On November 20, the police received a tip-off about the trio and nabbed them from near Sarai kale Khan ISBT. During interrogation, it emerged that the gang was being led by Salim, said Yadav.

The gang was allegedly involved in smuggling of cattle between Delhi and Haryana's Mewat. In 2008, a police constable, who had flagged down the vehicle of the gang near Kapashera area, died after being hit, said police.
Their associate Mushir has worked as an accountant with different traders in Ghazipur Mandi and Paharganj area. He then went to Saudi Arabia for about a year and later joined Salim to earn easy money.
He used to give information about the movement of traders and Salim would hatch the plan to rob them, police added.
