A<\/strong>fter \u2018Operation Trackdown\u2019, Haryana DGP OP Singh has launched \u2018Operation Hotspot Domination\u2019 by identifying areas across the state where antisocial elements tend to gather. On the very first day of the campaign, police teams intensified combing operations, morning-evening patrolling, lighting arrangements in dark stretches, and joint monitoring with the civil administration in sensitive pockets of villages and cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The police spokesperson said that the objective is to bring these hotspots completely under police dominance and curb the movement and activities of criminals, said a police spokesperson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Amid this tightened vigil, Haryana Police achieved significant success in the past 24 hours by arresting 136 criminals, including five notorious offenders. These swift arrests demonstrate that the impact of the campaign has begun to reflect strongly on the ground from day one, added the spokesperson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Faridabad Police played the most proactive role by arresting 25 criminals and sending them to jail, while other districts continued conducting coordinated raids to clamp down on crime. During search operations, the police recovered 1 pistol, 1 rifle, 2 magazines, and 37 live cartridges, preventing several potential criminal incidents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Anti-Illegal Mining Team of Panchkula Police, along with local police units, continued strong crackdowns with rigorous patrolling and surprise checks. Between November 22 and 29\u2014within just eight days\u2014police seized 17 tippers, 1 JCB machine, and 2 tractor-trolleys involved in the illegal transportation of mining material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n CCTV monitoring in sensitive stretches, 24×7 deployment of the Commando and Flying squads, and regular patrolling are ongoing to ensure immediate action against any suspicious vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Faridabad Cyber Police cracked two significant cyber fraud cases within 24 hours, arresting four accused from Jharkhand and Uttar Pradesh. In Sector-14, three accused\u2014Ajay Kumar, Abhishek Das, and Abhishek Tiwari\u2014were arrested from Dhanbad after duping a woman of Rs 11,22,799 by posing as Airtel agents and fraudulently upgrading her SIM to 5G\/E-SIM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In another case, Waseem Khan (20) from Sitapur, UP, who supplied bank accounts to cyber fraudsters for Telegram \u2018review task\u2019 scams, was arrested and taken on a 3-day police remand after cheating a victim of \u20b91,58,700.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Sirsa Police achieved a major breakthrough with the arrest of Lakhvir Singh alias Lucky, a rewarded criminal carrying a bounty of \u20b95,000 and wanted for kidnapping, murdering, and disposing of the body of Gurpreet alias Guri. The CIA Ellenabad team apprehended the absconding accused after he had been frequently changing hideouts across Rajasthan, Punjab, and Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The accused, along with his associates, had abducted Guri from Sirsa, brutally assaulted him in a field, then took him to Rawatsar (Rajasthan) where they strangled him with a rope and dumped the body into the Raj Canal after tying it with stones to destroy evidence. This gang-war-linked case had earlier led to the arrest of 12 accused, after Sirsa Police uncovered the entire conspiracy using crucial leads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n During preliminary interrogation, Lakhvir confessed to the crime. He has been taken on police remand, and special teams have been formed to arrest the remaining absconding accused involved in this gruesome murder and evidence destruction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Chandigarh A total of 136 criminals arrested in the under ‘Operation Hotspot Domination’ over the last 24 hours.
