A 26-year-old man, allegedly involved in supplying illegal arms to criminals in the city, was arrested in Uttam Nagar here, police said Thursday.
The accused has been identified as Kamaluddin, a resident of Uttam Nagar, they said.
The arrest was made following a tip-off that Kamaluddin would come in the area to provide illegal weapons to someone known to him, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Dwarka) Anto Aplhonse said.
